If you’re considering clinical PhD programs and are interested in eating disorders, suicide/self-harm, and/or interoception, please consider applying to Auburn and the REDS Lab. I’d love to review your application!
Are you passionate about eating disorders and/or suicide? Do you like red pandas?!
If yes to all—or at least the first—we’ll be recruiting clinical PhD students this cycle for the REDS Lab at Auburn University, under the mentorship of @aprilrosesmith.bsky.social

I made a website!
Just a little side project that's still a work in progress, but I've long been inspired to make an academic researcher page through GitHub.

Really honored to be invited to write this Nature commentary on Liu et al.'s great new meta-analysis on interoception and self-harm. The findings highlight that it's not just whether we detect bodily signals, but how we interpret and trust them, that may matter most for suicide risk.

We opened a low-cost clinic at Auburn to help close that gap. I'm grateful for this feature highlighting the work:
