Awesome work from my favorite researchers!!
🚨 My FIRST co-first author paper with @dbroockman is out today in @ScienceAdvances!! 🥳🥳 Many are worried Dems & Reps hate each other. Would encouraging them to talk bridge this divide? Or even improve democracy? Our results might surprise you ... 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Are you a PhD student in psych (especially social) interested in doing a tech industry internship? Check out the slides from this panel I was on with my UCLA colleagues @ryanhhyon @_du_meng and Lee Lazar. Shoutout to @diegoareinero for the inspiration.
.@_du_meng, @ph_fisher, Lee Lazar and I (we're all in UCLA's Social Psych/Neuro PhD program) hosted a grad student panel yesterday on "PhD Internships in Tech" & folks found it helpful. Wanted to share it more broadly. Please retweet/share if you'd like! tinyurl.com/PhDInternshipsIn…

I coauthored an article with my advisor (Dr. Tiffany Brannon) and lab mate (Abigail Greydanus) on how to leverage aspects of the social self to address social issues. It's free to read online for 2 weeks, check it out: cambridge.org/core/elements/…

I wrote the section titled "Making the Invisible Visible: Examining Dominant Group Identities in Context." I argue that an intragroup focus will help us better understand the dynamics of privileged group identities and their role in perpetuating and potentially reducing prejudice

Come work on psychological interventions aimed at helping students from disadvantaged backgrounds succeed in college! Happy to answer any questions about the position or the CTC more broadly. xitter.gq/joelleforestier/status…
