A panel will provide helpful insight into their career and scholarship experiences as relational aggression researchers to support professional development and growth for attendees, especially students and early career investigators.

In today’s fast paced world finding ways to convey information quickly can allow us to bring attention to important topics such as relational aggression as well as disseminate research findings both in and outside of academia. This data blitz is an opportunity for graduate students to briefly present and share the research they have been conducting with the larger conference audience.
