"Tell them what you're going to tell them, tell them, tell them what you told them" is such a solid piece of advice for grantwriting from Dr. Kurt Albertine. Lucky to be sitting in the back observing trainees at OHSU and @usdohad.bsky.social's Summer Trainee Workshop before I present at 3!

Love seeing the next generation of impact-makers in early life development & lifestyle health!

Have a great annual meeting, from me & @dohadcanada.bsky.social !
