Bittersweet to have spent the past two days talking about misinformation research w/ @ekvraga.bsky.social & @ethanvporter.bsky.social The gathering had been planned for months as part of @cnwahlheim.bsky.social's NSF grant. But the grant was cancelled days before the event. We decided to carry on 1/

I deeply appreciate this thoughtful summary of our event, Lisa! It was amazing to celebrate this important work together, even if funding priorities have changed. I look forward to more great work on this topic to come from all of our labs :)

Congrats!

Thanks Chad.

Thanks, Laura. It certainly was not a fun email to read :(

I’m sure. Quite the timing…

Can confirm that mine has also been canceled. :(

For anyone who knew her or her work, Colleen Kelley passed away this week. Colleen was a great person who also happened to do some truly brilliant research. I always appreciated my conversations with Colleen. She was wonderful for helping me and others think.
