New paper with Teresa Harvey. Short press piece by BU. I’ll do a thread on it once I recover from the week. But proud of this one. Link to paper in this short piece

Why are some kids risk-takers, while others choose to play it safe? A new @RSocPublishing study led by @BU_CAS' @peter_blake_bu shows children make different decisions when placed in the same risky situation based on their socioeconomic backgrounds. ⬇️ spr.ly/6012MbHBi

In the last year, Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans passed a law eliminating ANY permit requirement for guns — and then slashed $211 MILLION from Texas’s mental health budget.

Capping the cost of insulin at $35 a month would help save lives. A good way to help make this a reality? Passing the Affordable Insulin Now Act.

If you know someone who is diabetic, they should know that 92% of House Republicans just voted against a standalone bill that would simply cap the cost of insulin at $35/month.

Nothing quite like giving a talk and getting an email from an older faculty member referencing his work from the ‘80s that supposedly predicts all of your experimental results, and wondering why you didn’t cite him.

@RainaBrands I was a single dad with 3 kids, 2 of whom needed to see the nurse every day (T1 diabetes). The elementary school was able to always call/text me first. But I was also in daily communication with the nurse and often the teachers. It took a LOT of face time to get them to adapt.

Our son has been in daycare since the beginning of the year. If he is sick and needs to come home early, they call me. If they want to give him paracetamol, they call me. If he has injured himself they call me. So what? 🧵1/4

@DrKlapperich It’s now a year later. Have kept off most of the Noom pounds, but The struggle is real. Not counting every calorie anymore, but still mentally applying the Noom. I’m not sure that I’ve gotten anything from Noom beyond the first 6 months. But those lessons were valuable to me.

@DrKlapperich I’ve struggled with obesity since adolescence, often just giving up. BMI > 40. During sabbatical, I made a bunch of changes and was able to drop 75lbs. Then plateaued. Then joined Noom & quickly dropped to BMI < 25 for the first time in 30+ years! Noom lessons taught me a lot.
