🔬 The EDCRN dataset was co-produced and developed alongside PWLE, which incorporates a wide range of measures. This multi-disciplinary approach will build a deeper understanding of eating disorders, making it more relevant and useful for patients, families and services. 🧡💙

Nice review of the history of the peer review system

It’s increasingly clear to me this has to change - experts should be paid by journals to do this key task that adds rigour & value to scientific publications

Journals have exploited academics & universities to make massive profits for too long
History of the “peer review”: advisors, gatekeepers or neither?

“..the “referee system” did not exist before the nineteenth century and the term “peer review” was a creation of the late twentieth century.”

“what most people really want is for civilization to continue as it is today, with new technology being unveiled to allow this. Unfortunately, it is that technology and our use of it that is destroying life on this planet, meaning that what most people want is impossible.”

There are many ways in which the potential marriage of the goals tackling climate change and restoring biodiversity is a good thing. But also real dangers of an abusive relationship if biodiversity is subordinated to an overpowering drive for carbon sequestration and biofuels.
The climate and biodiversity crises are entwined, but we risk pitting one against the other
In our race to cool the planet, we must not compromise the ecosystems on which we depend.
