Smartphone apps are popular for studying eating and its determinants in daily life. But be careful: not all dietary assessment tools are created (or perceived) equal(ly)!

Wer von euch hat da wieder Chemie ins Essen gemacht???

Hi folks! For a methods validation paper, we're looking for a large, cross-sectional, psychometric dataset that will show considerable heterogeneity in item responses, preferably, based on different classes/clusters/groups of people. Open access optimal, but if you have one you'd share w me ...

Who says that organising a conference can't be fun (and delicious)? Just tested a lunch option for #SAA2026, and it was so yummy!

Today is the last day to submit your abstract to #SAA2026 😱 who is still working on their submissions? We certainly are 😅

This is the large domino, with the small domino being some random quack in the UK in 1998 trying to undermine the existing MMR vaccine so his business partner can swoop in with his own. Instead he lost his work credentials and now kids are dying needlessly all over the world, so great job everyone.
Austria loses its WHO status as measles-free, too, together with Armenia, Azerbaijan Uzbekistan and Spain. This comes as no surprise, considering the rise in numbers in recent years and the decline in MMR vaccine coverage
