Miglena Ivanova, M.S. 🧠🌶️

Hellooo Bluesky! I am trying to grow my tiny lab at Vanderbilt and am recruiting 1-2 postdocs who will help me tackle addiction heterogeneity. Please reach out if interested! All reposts are appreciated! www.vanderbilt.edu/postdoc/posi...

Making a decent living in academia shouldn’t be the exception nor a nice surprise.

It should be the norm.

1/12 New paper on psychedelics as treatments for mental health problems is out! We discuss 10 challenges which limit conclusions that can be drawn about safety/efficacy of psychedelic therapy.

We share a checklist for journalists, policymakers & others to assess quality of studies.

Brief thread:

Can you send a screenshot? It doesn't let me open it from the US one :(

Really Penn State???? Way to make us a part of the #We .... wow. I hope this reaches someone who will do something about it.

Sorry, I guess?😂 Yes, I am one of those people.. if I think it, you'll know it! I used to love this about myself. In the past few years, I have faced many criticisms for it but I am slowly re-learning to embrace it again! #StopTheMasking #ADHD #NeurodiverseInAcademia @theadhdacademic.bsky.social

Throwback to our work examining the #transactional associations among #maternal #depression, maternal #sensitivity, and child engagement in a lower-income, diverse sample of children with #prenatal #tobacco #exposure, led by the amazing Rachel Level :)

Ok. Phew. Just checked and saw it wasn't UP. Crisis averted. I was planning to be as sour as a lemon gone bad if I didn't know he's performing here 🫨

WAIT ENRIQUE WAS HERE AND I DIDNT KNOWWWW.... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

The fists are telling me it isn't quite as patiently as you say it is 😆

How do people go about #data analysis summer #internships or #consulting? Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated! :)

Stop trying to be #neurotypical! It is a FT job and it's never going to work long-term. Understand that w/ the struggles and the extra needs #neurodivergence is bringing into your life also come unique strengths ❤️ #Advocate @theadhdacademic.bsky.social www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8kHv7UC/

I can also report that extroverts can be shy.

I am an extrovert. Being with people Energized me. But new people? Situations where I’m not sure if the rules? Very hard to go. Makes moving to a new place hard, which I’ve done a lot if.

If I had to choose one picture that best illustrates what being #Neurodivergent in academia is like, 👇👇👇. There is a long road ahead until they learn how to nurture & use our strengths. Not sure it'll happen in my lifetime🥺

Some throwbacks to get this account looking like something different than a newborn haha Here I am with Elizabeth Loftus, Dante Cicchetti and Phillip Zimbardo. Some more controversial than others, yet all starting lines of research that have grown to what we know today as psychological science :)))
