Well, it’s hard to believe, but I won’t be stepping foot in an airport for 5 weeks. Just one road trip this week to spend some qulity time with the Army in Charlottesville, but aside from that, my work is all local. Gives me a little breathing room, and some time to catch up on [...]

Going into the Memorial Day Weekend I leave you with this powerful video from TEDMED:

JAMA Pediatrics has the new article by David Finkelhor and colleagues available online in advance of the print version: Violence, Crime and Abuse Exposure in a National Sample of Children and Youth.

I don’t know about you, but last week I reached my news saturation point. By Friday night I had to shut down my electronics and just get away from all of it. (My eyes needed a break, as the brilliant Amy Poehler stated.) So a lot of what I’ve been reading *isn’t* about Boston, but [...]

Back in my office after a lovely visit with a really diverse group of forensic nurses in Australia. The trip back from Australia? Less lovely. Much. The good news about the cluster&*@k that was my trip home? Well, I might need some time before I can come up with something, but the extra time added [...]

I am heading to Sydney today, and while I am hoping to keep posts fairly regular for the week, please bear with me. My intention is also to tweet from the conference where I am able, so look for that, as well. This weekend my kiddo was in town, so it was mostly play time [...]

Mark your calendar: the inaugural Forensic Journal Club is coming up 12 February. Find all the information you need to participate here. Clearly, I needed the weekend to recover, which is exactly what I did. Surrounded myself with loved ones (and my pup) and played down in Charlottesville with good friends. I held a few new [...]
