@LCHeathcote Basically! A small group of up to 8. Spend the first 5-10 minutes sharing goals, and the last 5-10 reporting back progress. The middle 50 focused writing ✍️. It’s a nice way to (briefly) connect, support, and learn what your friends/colleagues are working on 😊

@LCHeathcote Definitely! My dept set up weekly Writing Accountability Groups which has been helpful (and social!; wanna WAG sometime?!). And using the "forest" app to set timers and keep me off other apps. Have been setting realistic goals for "focused hours" each day <3 <3

Elated to announce that my @NIDCR Career Development Award has been funded!! The #K23 project will address implementation of evidence-based #painassessment in #pediatricdentistry — and I can’t wait to get started on it! #impsci #behavioraldentistry #pain #dentistry #Kaward

[Dr. Monica Cox @DrMonicaCox]

I request that students call me Dr. Cox not because I have an ego, but because there is often an assumption that I'm not Dr. Cox while others are Dr. ______.

When it is assumed that #WOC are doctors more than it is assumed they are "Mrs.," students may call me Monica. #lesson

[Rachel Aaron, PhD @RachelVAaron]

Fantastic work (and great read!) by @Sabine_Soltani and @MelanieNoel - pulling from pediatric depression models to generate a new, integrative model of the co-occurrence of depression and chronic pain in youth and contributing factors. Next up - novel tx?? https://t.co/8C2iVkpmmz

@PattonMichaela I wish!! IASP 2020 Amsterdam?!

[Rachel Aaron, PhD @RachelVAaron]

As white women it’s imperative to acknowledge our privilege and work to understand the violent history from which that power manifests. And more important - that we relinquish power to make room for WOC and women with intersecting minority identities, so we can ALL rise together.

1/ I’ve been struggling with this for a while...so here goes..LONG THREAD.

Any discussion about gender equity must include race. My version of gender equity often conflicts with other women’s in the room.

Women, including white women, ask “Where are the male allies?”.
