Great @HCTriage podcast on funding in science, how it has evolved over time, how it affects scientific culture - and also the 'reproducibility crisis'. Focused on US academia & medical research, but much of it is probably transferable to other disciplines. bit.ly/3FaUZPz

This is an important and compelling idea from @AlanLevinovitz.
Ultra-processed information is like ultra-processed food: designed for overconsumption, to our detriment.
It's paywalled, so just a couple of bits of it here.

What's the consequence of not incentivizing error correction? Error propagation: "Various teams of authors adopted a similar analytical approach too."

Our writer, @Scientiffst, is increasingly embarrassed about living in Idaho.
She would like opinions on the best places to live in peace with her mRNA.

When we talk about vaccines, we're usually thinking about pathogens like viruses or bacteria. This time, however, we're talking about fentanyl. A vaccine against fentanyl. Isn't that something.

Hey it's National Dark Chocolate Day! We thought we would take this opportunity to be awful and remind everyone that dark chocolate is not, in fact, a superfood with stunning health benefits. *waves white flag while slowly retreating*

The number of self-help books that spit out completely incorrect facts about the brain is astonishing.

Hey #AcademicTwitter - have you seen this NIH-funded podcast series on science culture and reproducibility? Covers issues (& solutions!) in academic hiring, promotion, training, publishing, funding and more. #AcademicChatter #academia #Science

A hugely important issue for science, and one of many we touched on in our reproducibility series (link in comments!)

A little late sharing this, but I had the opportunity to contribute to research for this episode that covers a very cool topic! Come learn a lot in a short amount of time! 🍫 🧠

Why do we LOVE junk food, even tho it's not good for us? In the season premiere of #ServingUpScience, @Sheril_ explains what the chemical dopamine does to our brains to keep us wanting more. Watch it now on @PBSFood! youtube.com/watch?v=Mi84o9ZK… @WKAR

Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug among pregnant people...is that okay? Can the drug cross into the placenta? Does it matter when and/or how it is ingested during the pregnancy?

Not a published research paper. Not in humans. Insane.

Take a look at this headline. This is based on an unpublished conference abstract (being presented today at an endocrinology meeting) of a study on rats.

Self-report, diet quality, and exercise, oh my! The latest study on diet, exercise, and mortality recently hit the media circuit, and we're here (again) to talk about why it doesn't mean what the media thinks it means.

Twitter politics is a circus, meticulously cultivated w the most outrageous or infuriating clips/quotes so we ❤️ & 🔁 or watch & follow.
It’s a soap opera amplified by media, algorithms, influencers & bots. /2
