"Preregistration" lumps three distinct practices into one:
- Study registration
- Protocol
- Analysis plans (SAPs)
To advance open science, it's critical that we distinguish them.

✨New preprint from me, Drs. Anna Kirkland, and Lindsay Squeglia at MUSC & Dr. @louisemewton.bsky.social at @sydney.edu.au✨ We used 3T MRS to examine age- and alcohol-related associations with metabolites in dorsal anterior cingulate cortex in 84 17-22 year olds that were recruited for alcohol use.

First post on Bluesky! Here @rvisontay.bsky.social and I present the case for cancer warning labels on alcoholic drinks in Australia:

Should Australia mandate cancer warnings for alcoholic drinks?
“Drink responsibly” messages have not stopped risky drinking. Some say we need cancer warnings on wine bottles and beer cans like we do on cigarette packs.
