Hello Div28 colleagues,

 

Please join me in congratulating Dr. Bill Stoops (CC'd here) for having recently been awarded an APA Presidential Citation. This is a rare and prestigious honor, but one that those of us who have been lucky enough to interact with Dr. Stoops know is fully warranted. The link to the citation and its website description is provided for you below. Note that your congratulation emails are welcomed, but please reply directly to Dr. Stoops rather than the extended listserv 🙂 

 

 

 

William Stoops, PhD, was awarded a 2020 Presidential Citation for his brilliant research, multi-dimensional leadership at APA, and his positive, enthusiastic demeanor.

 

"Stoops is an extraordinary psychologist, a full professor of Behavioral Science, Psychiatry, and Psychology at the University of Kentucky (UK), and immersed in the professional and administrative workings of the University. Stoops oversees clinical research, engages with University leadership in strategic planning, and ensures compliance with budgeting in an array of centers of excellence on campus, including the UK Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences and the UK Clinical Research Support Office. Stoops' own research includes study in the neuropharmacology of various drugs of abuse and the development of internet-based treatments for substance abuse.

 

What is additionally impressive about Stoops, however, is his effective, enthusiastic leadership at APA. Stoops previously served on the Board of Convention Affairs (BCA), including serving as chair in 2017. He served as chair of the Council Effectiveness Work Group in 2020. Stoops currently serves on APA's Council of Editors and the Advocacy Coordinating Committee. At the same time, he is serving a second term on the Council of Representatives as representative for Div. 28, Psychopharmacology and Substance Abuse.

 

Stoops is always kind, inclusive, energetic, focused, rational. He is a superb listener as well as an accomplished leader who gets things done. We can rely on him to complete projects in a comprehensive, yet timely manner. For his brilliant research, multi-dimensional leadership, his positive, enthusiastic demeanor, I, Sandra L. Shullman, present this presidential citation to William Stoops."

[#DIV28SUPER] Expanded Mentoring Program for RSA Meeting Attendees

Dear Colleagues and Students,

 

The RSA Education Committee and Mentoring Subcommittee is pleased to announce an expanded mentoring program for those planning to attend the meeting. It is ok to move forward with serving as a mentor and/or mentee before you have registered for the meeting.

 

The program has been expanded in 4 main ways:

 

  1. Longer time period for mentoring pre-meeting (up to 3 months)
  2. Expansion of who is eligible for mentoring (undergraduates through junior faculty and all levels in between) though preference will be given students, especially from underrepresented/disadvantaged backgrounds and first-time meeting attendees.
  3. Expanded criteria upon which we will match including research interests/background, type of institution and aspects of lived experience.
  4. Those at the graduate student through junior faculty levels may apply BOTH to serve as mentors and to receive mentorship. Those who would like to apply for both should complete both surveys below.

 

Below please find surveys to complete if you would like to serve as a mentor and/or request mentorship. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mentoring Subcommittee Chair, Dr. Robert Leeman (Robert.leeman@ufl.edu, 352-294-1808).

 

*** We will begin matching mentors and mentees on Monday, March 8th. After that date, we will continue to match on a rolling basis right up until the beginning of the meeting, but applying by the 8th increases the chances of a match ***

 

 

Mentor: https://ufl.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6X4lKQsIzIdltps

 

Mentee: https://ufl.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4N3f4BzsWbvu3k2

[#DIV28SUPER] Fw: Opportunity to weigh in on NICCH and NINDS draft strategic plan

Hello Div28 colleagues,

The below message from APA provides an opportunity for you to offer feedback on NINDS and NCCIH's strategic plans.

Best
Kelly

 

__________________________

 

Dear APA Colleagues:

 

As you may be aware, several of the 27 institutes of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are in the process of releasing their congressionally mandated 2021 -2026 strategic plans. Accordingly, these institutes are seeking feedback on those plans from the scientific community.

 

We hope you will take the opportunity to review the draft plans and respond to their requests for information. Their invitations for feedback allow psychologists an opportunity to ensure sufficient representation of behavioral and psychological science research in the various plans.

 

National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health

The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) is currently seeking feedback on its draft Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2021-2025, highlighting its research priorities and informing its funding decisions. The plan has five objectives:

 

  1. Advance fundamental science and methods development
  2. Advance research on whole-person health and integration of complementary and conventional care
  3. Foster research on health promotion and restoration, resilience, disease prevention, and symptom management
  4. Enhance the complementary and integrative health research workforce
  5. Disseminate objective evidence-based information on complementary and integrative health interventions.

One of the final steps to the plan's release is to get feedback from the scientific community. NCCIH's strategic plan expands its "definition of integrative health to include whole-person health, or helping individuals improve their health in multiple interconnected domains: social, psychological, and physiological, including connections between organs and systems." It also emphasizes "strengthening [its] efforts toward integration of knowledge across disciplines, focusing on the whole person, taking a transdisciplinary approach that integrates the natural, social, and health sciences and transcends traditional boundaries." The plan also recognizes the need to support basic behavioral science.  We seek your assistance in determining whether these and the other references to behavioral and psychological science sufficiently capture the discipline's research. Are there noticeable gaps in the plan from your point of view? Please be sure to commend the institute for any elements in the strategic plan that can elevate psychological and behavioral science research.

 

The deadline to respond to NCCIH's Request for Information (RFI): Inviting Comments on the NCCIH Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2021-2025 (NOT-AT-21-005) is March 12, 2021. View the Draft NCCIH Strategic Plan FY 2021-2025, Submit a Comment on the Draft Plan. Please share your comments with the APA Advocacy staff (asharpe@apa.org).

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) is also inviting public comment from its broad stakeholder community on its draft 2021-2026 NINDS Strategic Plan via a Request for Information on the 2021-2026 National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Strategic Plan (NOT-NS-21-021).

The NINDS plan addresses:

  1. Science: Support and perform rigorous and important neuroscience research
  2. Training and Workforce Diversity: Fund and conduct neuroscience research training and career development programs to ensure a vibrant, talented, and diverse neuroscience workforce.
  3. Communications: Promote dynamic communication and diverse stakeholder engagement to accelerate scientific progress and reduce the burden of neurological disorders.
  4. Communications: Promote dynamic communication and diverse stakeholder engagement to accelerate scientific progress and reduce the burden of neurological disorders.
  5. Workforce Culture: Create and sustain a supportive work culture for the NINDS workforce that becomes the model for biomedical research and the neuroscience community.

We hope you will review NINDS' plan to ensure there are no glaring omissions of psychological and behavioral science research and the potential contributions of these sciences? Conversely, if there are areas where you think the institute should be commended for its foresight and leadership, we recommend you share those as well.

Submit any comments via NINDS' submission webform through March 15, 2021. We hope you will be willing to share any comments you make with the APA Advocacy staff (asharpe@apa.org).

For more information, please do not hesitate to contact me in Advocacy at asharpe@apa.org.

 

All the best,

Workshop Description

The goals of this virtual meeting are to discuss research gaps on racial inequities in substance use and addiction and to inform NIDA’s commitment to this area by identifying short- and long-term plans for enhancing the research portfolio. Discussion will center on research in areas where there are known racial/ethnic inequities; and where research has the greatest potential to reduce those disparities. These include, but are not limited to, persistent health disparities related to substance use, addiction, and related outcomes; a lack of attention to research questions most salient to underrepresented communities; and existing system bias in the scientific enterprise. The overarching goal of the Research Gaps and Opportunities Workgroup is to engage the scientific community in identifying research priorities that can inform NIDA programs/funding opportunities and ultimately reduce health disparities and improve outcomes.
