@profsamperry Yes! I got an idea for my dissertation from a talk at a conference, and the speaker agreed to sit on my defense committee. I only met him through the conference - he lived in a different country!

Biggest thing to ever come out of my little group. Pls help spread this finding!

We found clean, CAUSAL evidence that the shingles vaccine prevents a good chunk of dementia cases. So, could a virus cause Alzheimer’s->YES!

I am delighted to share a major collaborative study between Cambridge, Oxford, London and Newcastle that has really changed my understanding of how the brain predicts and perceives speech, and how this can go wrong in non-fluent aphasia [a thread]

This is an autistic led, healthcare informed, essential tool for healthcare workers. Autism seen in 100% of health settings. The authors’ aim was to create a simple framework promoting accessibility without adding to current clinical burdens, and they have done that beautifully.

Big meta-analytic findings!!! The GRE’s ability to predict graduate outcomes has decreased significantly over time as the diversity of graduate students has increased. Predictive value also decreases as samples include more People of Color. https://t.co/7Qhum0leqT

Really proud of my latest for the @nytimes: Black equestrians with natural hair struggle to find helmets that fit. It’s a huge barrier for inclusivity but also dangerous —horseback riding is one of the leading causes of sports-related TBIs. https://t.co/pLzcxzNgSb

Consumer Reports scientists recently measured the amount of heavy metals in 28 dark chocolate bars. They detected cadmium and lead in all of them... For 23 of the bars, eating just 1 oz a day would put an adult over a potentially harmful level of lead. https://t.co/oFep6KNH3r

Sobering new data from the last few years showing the U.S. maternal mortality rate continues to exceed that of other high-income countries.

This horrifyingly high rate is driven especially by the deaths of Black birthing people.

My latest publication "The Unbearable Whiteness of Communicative Competence Research" is available online free! It's a commentary on Flores and Rosa's (2022) groundbreaking proposal to undo the notion of communicative competence in applied linguistics.

Do monolinguals provide control in bi/multilingualism research? And what are the implications of the default practice? Short answers: No, they don’t and too many to enumerate here. Read to understand our positioning more! This has been a long time coming.

I’ll remind folks of what I’ve posted before: in 1960 you could pay for a full year at the University of Minnesota with SIX WEEKS at a minimum wage job.

Student debt is a consequence of the systematic defunding of higher education, not bad borrower decisions. #CancelStudentDebt
