And to my family, friends, co-authors, and colleagues who have contributed enormously to HARSH, thank you. This project talks about child discipline, and in one way or another, touches us all—whether as a child or as a parent. Stay tuned!

Infinite thanks to @nicolabarban for supporting me through everything—from the 1st trial to this 2nd one, through unemployment, discrimination, raising two children, tough career decisions, and 10 moves across 4 countries. You are my rock. And by the way double jackpot in the family! 😉

This victory is for the 2 most amazing women in my life: my daughter and my mom—because where there’s a will, there’s a way.

🚨 conference alert 🚨

I had the privilege of organizing the first two ESSGN conferences, and it was a blast.

There's a growing community of social scientists interested in genetics who gather every year at this event, and we're happy to welcome even more.

Submit your papers!!
