FABBS

What a thrilling start to 2026 – honored to be recognised by @cogsci_soc and @FABBS! Can’t wait to meet you all in Rio this July, one of the absolute gems of my beloved South America!

Another successful Annual Meeting in the books! We were joined by leaders at @NIH, @NSF, @ScienceMagazine, and more. Special thanks to @SageJournals and @APA for their sponsorship! Thank you to all attendees for your engagement, curiosity, and dedication! See you all next year!

FABBS is proud to support Americans for Medical Research. Over the last century, research has helped improve early detection and treatment of serious diseases. Future progress is at risk unless we continue federal funding for medical research. #AmericansForMedicalResearch
