I enjoy reading anything science related to medical, social, psychological. I enjoy dark humor and dark chocolate. I enjoy learning and don’t have time for people who choose belief, options, or feelings over logic, facts, or science.
I heard someone say “There is no such thing as an ethical billionaire.”
Thoughts?
Especially from a social and psychological perspective

Wow.

Big #ImageForensics concerns in this #Virology paper from researchers at @usask.bsky.social in Canada, published in MDPI Viruses.

Findings by 'Anthemis tripolitana' and me.

This is very bad.

When I gave my Vaccines lecture (for a Virology course) last week I was literally breathless. I started from first principles and walked through examples and have rarely been as animated and raw in my presentation style.
Today’s class session in my introductory public health class is going to be entirely devoted to an overview of how vaccines work and how they are researched and regulated. I believe it is my responsibility as a public health professor to share this information and be available to discuss questions.
