We’re thrilled to welcome them to next week’s BADIE Lab Symposium, where our high school mentees will showcase what they’ve learned about behavior analysis through mentorship with some of our lovely graduate students. Stay tuned for more! 📓📢

Toward the end of February, BADIE Lab collaborated with Clear Creek ISD during their DPL conference to deliver two training/workshop sessions to teachers.

Mojola Bamise, coordinator of the BADIE HS dissemination and mentorship program GA, developed the training and provided the lectures. We’re so happy to have opportunities to contribute to the dissemination of behavior analysis and its utility to our local community. 📚

Publication alert!
Our brilliant UHCL graduate students continue to advance our knowledge on working with bilingual autistic individuals and their families. Congratulations to first author Christine Romo, now a practicing BCBA at Texans!
