Recruiting PhD students for Fall 27 - we focus on education & equitable access to effective supports for children and families. If you are interested in implementation science, interdisciplinary partnerships, & applied research that bridges evidence, policy, and practice, please get in touch!

So beyond grateful to have received a NICHD LRP award 🎉🥳 This support is such a privilege, one not many have access to in this country This comes at a perfect time as on a recent trip home I was asked if I am still in school (the answer is no, not really at least).

Call for submissions! This call invites submissions on innovative community-engaged research in developmental psychobiology for the 2026 ISDP Annual Meeting in New Orleans (11/11–13). More details in the attached flyer, please submit your research abstract and CV by March 17! Reach out with Qs 😊

@isdp.org members, please join us in 30 minutes if you can. Annual self-reflection meeting time!

I wrote a piece for The Conversation on the importance of SNAP for reducing food insecurity and improving child health. I’d love it if you would read and share!

The Conversation U.S.@us.theconversation.com

Recent SNAP cuts and the government shutdown are disrupting food access for millions of children. A developmental psychologist explains why this matters: food insecurity in childhood predicts higher cardiovascular risks in adulthood, worse mental health and academic problems. buff.ly/GEHkiZr

Words and gestures help tune infant attention before they can speak. New UC Davis study finds babies focus longer when object labels ("bear") are paired with spatial words ("here"), and even longer when paired with gestures like pointing. ucdav.is/4lYtXgL

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

New review from Jess Morrel & the @hertinglab.bsky.social exploring links between air pollution and the developing brain. tl;dr: this literature is growing, but there are still gaps in time (sensitive exposure windows, timing of exposure -> brain changes) and space (most data from US/Europe)

Hearing from all corners of HHS this morning about a total bloodletting — firings of scientists, analysts and many more as delayed RIFs take effect. Many folks didn’t see early AM email and showed up, only to be turned away when badges didn’t work. Was sent this photo of long lines at one HHS site.

I know not everyone can keep up with all the grant terminations, but it’s important to know what we’re losing so I’ll try to compile them here. First is a study on intimate partner violence with perinatal women (note: the #1 cause of death during pregnancy is homicide) bsky.app/profile/rebe...

Rebecca Fielding-Miller@rebeccafieldingmiller.com

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
