We have rebranded the @CHOICE_LAB to move completely away from weight and toward addressing the real issue of broad-based health inequities that persist across disease presentations. This move represents professional and personal growth, and it feels good to be here: A thread 1/x

It was an amazing opportunity to contribute to this special issue of PAB on Addictive Behavior as Behavioral Allocation as a guest editor! Check it out below.
The director of UF CBEHR (Dr. Jalie Tucker) was one of the guest editors among other colleagues of a special issue of Psychology of Addictive Behaviors honoring Howard Rachlin, a giant in modern psychology, behavioral economics, and teleological behaviorism who died in 2020.

I'm thankful for these voices and angry that we keep calling on these voices after violence occurs. Are we listening yet?

Insulin is not a luxury, it’s a necessity. Thanks to @wttw for having @Tim_Classen and I on Chicago Tonight last night to talk about the strengths and limitations of the Inflation Reduction Act for people with diabetes #insulin4all @DePaulNewsroom @DePaulNewsline @DePaul_News
The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act has brought relief to millions of Americans who depend on insulin every month. The law caps the cost of the diabetes drug for Medicare patients to just $35 per month. to.wttw.com/3QAVvdj
Excited this article is FINALLY out! 🥳 We summarized the legal mechanisms of 25 policies passed in the US from 2018-2020 that aim to slow or halt #dollarstore growth. Most were passed in low-income communities of color. @jemccarthy76 Check it out: mdpi.com/2072-6643/14/15/309….
