What is the quickest way to destroy science? - Discredit and demean expertise. - Spread misinformation from official sources. - Aggressively defund research - Tie funding to ideological stances - Threaten scientists with retribution and cultivate fear. - Eliminate diversity of thought and ideas.

If anyone gets nostalgic about how doctors have lost their diagnostic skills and things used to be better, please direct them to this case series from 1986 where following a seizure with an average Na of 108(!) 66% got an EEG 60% had an LP and 2 had brain biopsies #KnuckleHeadsItsTheSodium

This was me. Terminated from #NIMHBSC with no explanation. Complete gov interference in the #NIH intramural research program oversight and review - telling NIH researchers what science they can do and who can do it. Not a positive outlook for scientific discovery, innovation, or health. 👇👇

The now-deceased patient was the matriarch. She loved flowers & the color yellow. These fingerprint paintings our volunteer artist created for the bereaved family are stunning. It is ironic, but nowadays, our EOL program is one of the very few sparks of light that I see. @3wishesprogram.bsky.social
