We’re recruiting a new Director for @uarizona's Behavioral Health Clinic, a core member of our clinical faculty who will help lead clinical training at the U of A. Search committee is aware the ideal person might be someone who is about to start internship so please share widely!
Applying computational models of reinforcement learning can help to improve psychotherapeutic interventions by helping to identify the therapeutic mechanisms of change and identifying for whom therapies will be most effective. @yael_niv nature.com/articles/s4427…
She was the best of us. A giant and a guiding light. sciencedirect.com/special-issue/… Special Issue of BRAT honoring the impact of Dianne Chambless' research, mentorship, and advocacy. Miss her big time.
How does where we live – urban, rural, or in-between – relate to our mental health? 🌆🏞️ In this cross-national study, we investigate the links between urbanicity, anxiety & depressive disorders in 500,000 adults across the UK, Norway, and New Zealand 🧵 doi.org/10.31219/osf.i…
My lab’s 5-year NIH R01 grant, awarded to study gene therapy for hearing loss, was abruptly terminated. I want to share how this action has been incredibly harmful and disruptive, not just to my lab, but to the scientific process itself. 1/15
Almost exactly one year after starting my lab (!), I'm thrilled to share our first preprint! 🥳 @ukeleily @sharinahamm @francesghart We propose future directions for mathematical, computational, & digital methods to advancing suicide research. Preprint: osf.io/preprints/psya…
Just got told by my NIA PO that I should probably resubmit my R01 (by July 5 lol), even though it scored a 10% and is on Alzheimer’s disease. Last year’s NIA paylines were 13% for regular R01s and 16% for AD grants..so WTF?! 😭🫠

📢Work w/ @c3K @TaylorABurkePhD @jorsmo @DrJBStephens + others📢 Clinicians stratify patients for risk of suicide attempt at above chance levels in routine practice, but statistically incorporating routinely collected info during suicide risk assmt improves predictive accuracy
While clinicians can stratify suicide risk above chance levels, predictive accuracy for future suicide attempts significantly improves when using machine learning to incorporate comprehensive clinical assessment data. ja.ma/3G3Niy2 @drkatebentley
