Talya Bauer capped her year as SIOP president by celebrating the work of several individuals who embody SIOP’s ideal of equally valuing and integrating the science and practice of I-O psychology.

Dr. Bauer’s focus on this ideal was also evident in several other features of the 34th Annual SIOP Conference in National Harbor, Maryland, held April 4-6, 2019.

The year before, at the closing plenary of the 33rd Annual SIOP Conference, Dr. Bauer announced the creation created a task force on Science Practice Opportunities for Translation, the SPOT Task Force.

In February, 2019, a task force subcommittee chaired by Donald Truxillo and including Frederik Anseel, Kathryn Dekas, and Shonna Waters issued a call for nominations for the Scientist Practitioner Presidential Recognition.
