My friend and former lab mate, Aurora (2nd-year clinical psych PhD student) has been diagnosed with cancer.
Any donations to help cover her imaging and treatment costs would be immensely appreciated.
Thank you for your support! ❤️

Their communication of some pretty COMPLEX ideas into simple and easy to understand figures is nothing short of magic. 🪄
