New findings from my lab in Nature Communications, led by DongWon Oh, suggest that racial stereotypes can lead the brain's perceptual system to temporarily "see" weapons where they don't exist. Paper: nature.com/articles/s4146… (1/6)

The results open a path for new interventions that don’t just target stereotypes but also attempt to recalibrate biased visual perception directly, with the hopes of mitigating such high-stakes misjudgments under stress and uncertainty. (6/6)

While past work has generally assumed such weapon-identification biases involve an accurate perception of the object but then a racially biased impulse that is difficult to control, our findings suggest that part of the problem is a temporary visual distortion as well. (5/6)

Refusing to release the requested data on how these questions performed undermines the Census Bureau’s scientific integrity and prevents accountability when LGBTQ+ communities are left invisible. (4/4)

Congress allocated $10 million, the Census Bureau tested nearly half a million households, and now the results are being unlawfully suppressed. (3/4)

Democracy Forward & I filed a lawsuit against the Census Bureau, seeking the release of data from its testing of sexual orientation & gender identity questions for the nation's most important annual demographic survey, key to upholding LGBTQ+ rights (1/4) democracyforward.org/updates/sogi-d…
Democracy Forward@DemocracyFwd

We’re suing the Census Bureau to force the release of critical LGBTQ+ data. Failing to release the data = failing to include LGBTQ+ people from policy decisions impacting health care, housing, employment, education, and more resources. So we're demanding accountability.

Year 3 comes to a close. Grateful for steady growth and small wins—a seed grant, journal R&Rs, and new manuscripts in the works. Thank you to the students, RAs, and lab manager for showing up with care, curiosity, and energy. Wishing all the best to those graduating.
