This is one of the best articles on human challenge trials – aka deliberate infection for medical research – that I've read.
Enjoyable & informative from @dylanmatt.bsky.social for @vox.com on his experience volunteering to receive malaria(!), and expert insight on the potential of these trials ⬇️

Working where science & media cross, this is fascinating.
It's dispiriting yet unsurprising to see this. But isn't it interesting (reassuring) that scientists are seen as non-divisive, when their key routes to capture public attention are through those 'divisive' media & social media? #scicomm

First impressions: there's lots to like about Bluesky, it looks and sounds a bit like 'old' Twitter. But for me, it misses that town hall factor & instead feels like a collection of soapboxes.
I'm curious to hear how others are finding it? And in the meantime, I'll share some more thoughts below 🧵
