Glad to have had the chance to work with the great people both here Yale Psychiatry and a state away Brown Psychiatry and Human Behavior on this project! It all started with Society of Biological Psychiatry’s Travel Award mentor program where I was matched with Audrey Tyrka, these programs can make real impact!

Very happy to have worked on this with Raghav "RV" Sehgal and many others, and looking forward to presenting it at the Biomarkers of Aging Consortium conference this weekend!
