Many of our faculty panelists are looking to accept students this cycle (@brialong.bsky.social@adenaschachner.bsky.social@nadiabrashier.bsky.social to name a few), so it’s a chance to hear from them before you apply! Come spend two days learning about our program! We can’t wait to meet you! 3/4
Congratulations!!
...and my wonderful students and trainees who make everything we do possible, and make doing science so much more meaningful and fun. @rtompkins.bsky.social@asmithflores.bsky.social@chaolanlin.bsky.social (+Minju Kim, Tanushree Agrawal, Madison Pesowski!) I'm looking forward to this new decade!
I am feeling so fortunate, and so grateful. Thank you to all of my family (particularly @timbrady.bsky.social, and my parents); my colleagues and mentors who have supported me (and contributed letters to the tenure process)...
Yesterday, on my birthday, I got the call from our department chair that I have officially received tenure, and an additional acceleration/ promotion as well (which I had not at all anticipated). The best timing — and the best 40th birthday present ever!
For years, I’ve been saying it was interesting that I would probably hear back about whether I would get tenure (or not) just around my 40th birthday. Well — the best version of this just happened.
Correction: our talk on hearing water temperature is now a bit earlier, at 3:20 today!!
Looking forward to CDS 2024! Come hear about: Kids’ perspective-taking over video chat (Chaolan Lin); hearing water temperature (Tanushree Agrawal); expectations about shared sleep arrangements (Rodney Tompkins); and social reasoning about placement of possessions (Rob Santiago)!
