Tump's bullying is just his psychopathic personality. Vance is, actually, kind of worse because he's strictly doing it to impress other guys he perceives as tougher. He's like the punk ass kid who takes a kick at someone after the bully knocks him down.

It's painful to read this, 5 years later. Study finds no increase in Covid spread in nursing home after visitation bans were lifted. Implication: The bans, which meant months of isolation for nursing home residents and heartbreak of their families, did no good. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40383139/

So, if you search google scholar enough it will just flag you as a bot and then there's absolutely no recourse, nor a human that you can prove you're not a bot. Reminding me we shouldn't be outsourcing such a key academic service to a for profit company that normalized not talking to its customers.

Although there has been many positive things happening lately for myself and my lab group, this week we've gotten the bad news of a grant termination, as the lead PI is at Harvard (and they've had all their federal funding terminated). It will be tough to stop the work that only last year 1/2

I remember a story in the Army where a commander was dubious about intelligence soldiers working with people who had connections with the Taliban and could we trust people like that and the intel officer replied "the people who don't work with the Taliban have no information about them."

I'm always intrigued by people who miss very obvious points in art they love. Things like: people who are mad that "Star Trek is woke" or Paul Ryan loving Rage Against the Machine.

The profile that Vinay Prasad deserves. He's presence in this administration is sign of Trump's commitment to endangering public health. Excellent work @lauralew105.bsky.social ! 🩺 #medsky newrepublic.com/article/1949...

Wow, as an early 90's computer nerd this guy was the enemy. Amazing to see him becoming one of the rare billionaire putting his money where his mouth is, and using his unique skills for good. 90's Jeff would be shocked.

@nytimes.com - "Doctor", in this context is for a physician. She's never had a license or seen patients right? So not a doctor.

Exciting update from PTC Therapeutics ! The results from the 24mo PIVOT-HD study look great! Curious if the FDA considers accelerated approval with some kind of ph4 requirement for more post-approval data. Stoked to see reductions in NfL over 2 years in HD! ir.ptcbio.com/static-files...

Warning, whining: The people who get paid to submit NIH grants for me neglected to check a box to confirm a foreign collaborator, and so NIH pulled the grant that's supposed to be reviewed in a few weeks. Now, won't happen until Dec. I really don't need local help making NIH apps harder!!

It's funny - as translational scientists, it's obvious that lab animals will get killed early if funding is cut. In the era when we actually care how our animals are treated and maximize the information we get from each, it's doubly cruel to lose them because of man babies in charge.
