Finally defended my dissertation and (almost) able to call myself Dr. Mazzone! Now I have little excuse to finish the projects I’ve been putting off in the meantime πŸ€ͺ. Honored to continue to do the work in effort to prevent suicide among higher risk populations 🌈

The president granting a TikTok extension yet continuing to slash essential research, deteriorate health benefits for veterans and tanking the economy (among what seems to be countless other things) should give you some insight on priorities of this administration. 🀑

Campaigning on β€œmaking America great again (?)” & actively making this country a worse place (e.g., bombing the economy, shredding life-saving research, cutting Social Security, tyrant collusion) YET I still see unwavering republican support. When will you realize he does not care about you?

I sincerely think that universities should suspend their productivity standards for scientists and ask them instead to hold town halls in schools, public libraries, museums, shopping malls, and anywhere else and communicate what is being lost with the collapse of the research ecosystem.

VA Research Funding Slashed Though not as prominent as the NIH, VA researchers play a major role in advancing basic health science. Hundreds of projects have been cut.

NIH cuts are getting the press, but VA research is getting slashed too. What do we lose when VA research goes away? Here's some greatest hits: The nicotine patch, invention of the cardiac pacemaker, first successful liver transplant, development of the CAT/CT scan
