Here at ECU, all of us Health Psychology PhD students are assigned to research assistantships for 20 hours per week. I work with an awesome research team under a big grant called "Project Viable". Our team consists of my mentor, Dr. Chris Riley-Tillman, and three other grad students, Lana, Shannon, and Jessica. Well a few weeks ago, Team Viable threw Beatrice a little baby shower at one of our weekly research meetings. Not only did they give us some great baby gifts, but best of all, Shannon had made customized baby bibs for Beatrice, since she is the newest member of the research team. So of course we had to have a photo shoot. I think my favorites are the "Too Cute 2 Be Analyzed" and the "I Love DBRs" bibs. (DBR stands for Direct Behavior Ratings--that is the tool that we research through our grant.)
So far Beatrice has been to two of our weekly meetings and was very intrigued by the whole process. She is well on her way to being a pint-sized academic.
