First they came for the undocumented immigrants.
Now they’re coming for those with H-1B visas.
What’s next?

I am curious to know your thoughts on using reflexive thematic analysis in longitudinal qualitative research. For example: research is conducted on a phenomenon of interest with sample B using interviews. /1

At least for today, we need to understand three things:
1) Acetaminophen does not cause autism.
2) The State of Israel ≠ Jews ≠ people who live in Israel.
3) Hamas ≠ Palestinians.

We do not need thoughts and prayers, regardless of who the victim is. What we need is gun legislation and we need it NOW.

A great talk by @ginnybraun.bsky.social on GenAI and qualitative analysis. Can GenAI do reflexive TA? The short answer is no - reflexive TA is a human practice. Should we use GenAI as qualitative researchers given all the harms of the tech? If you're remotely concerned with social justice ... no???
Here's a talk I gave as a keynote for the BPS @qmip.bsky.social conference (July 2025) - the result of @vicclarke.bsky.social & I recognising we needed to "dive in" & grapple with the beast that is GenAI & qualitative/(reflexive) thematic analysis

New article out today. A more timely title might have been “How Doctors Become Fascists.”

I’ll have another essay out next week on the minority of doctors who refuse to simply go along with violence and who build underground care systems in response.

Uncharacteristcally long 🧵 (sorry) re: #Qualitative methodologies, science, and 'AI'.

As Qualitative researchers, we should definitely care and remain curious about what 'good work' can look like - but we should be very wary about assuming that a focus on 'rigour' will address this question. 1/13

Important editorial in @nature.com.
As I said a decade ago in an op-ed in the @nytimes.com (back when they were publishing stuff like that), "If You See Something, Say Something" (www.nytimes.com/2014/01/19/o...)

In the face of anti-science politics, silence is not without cost
More scientific leaders need to speak out about anti-science agendas and threats to academic freedom across the world.

A growing body of research demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of self-managed abortion with pills, coupled with the global pandemic in 2020 and the fall of Roe in 2022, has many U.S. doctors changing their views.
Three years after Roe fell, more women are managing their abortions without doctors

Prof José B. Negrón presents the Reumasutra project.

Sex & intimacy should be addressed from the moment of diagnosis — they are key aspects of living with a rheumatic disease

Reviewed an ethics application where "AI" would be used to record therapy sessions. No details on the "AI" software/provider and zero concern for data protection around its use. Obviously this gets kicked back to sponsor but it's also kind of wild for it to be described so causally.
