Now also seems like a good time to share that I'll be reviewing apps for the Clinical Psychology PhD program @YalePsychology this year, and hiring a lab manager (lab website with more info coming soon). Please help spread the word!

Happy Father's Day to the immigrant Papas who moved across the world to plant roots in an unknown land. The ones who didn't have a roadmap and are trying their best. The ones who never looked back in order to create a life where we can intentionally make choices they never had.

Excited to share that we (@margsala @CheriLev @hedykober ) are developing a digital mindfulness treatment for anorexia nervosa! This tx is largely based on mindfulness-based relapse prevention. Just published the pilot trial with promising results. We hope to do more studies ;)
