Measles. It’s back.

Even though many family docs have never seen it before - because it was eradicated in 1998 - we know how to work together to make sure we can recognize it.

It’s a shame that a vaccine preventable illness is making such a comeback.

Nature posed a variety of scenarios to 5,000 academics around the world to understand which uses of AI are considered ethically acceptable. The survey results suggest that researchers are sharply divided on what they feel are appropriate practices. #Academicsky 🧪

What sets inspirational leaders apart? Adam Galinsky suggests it is being visionary, an exemplar, and a mentor. How do begin? Use REIP: "reflect, emulate, intend, and practice".

In under a week, two anti-woke, Trump-style opposition leaders in Australia and Canada got tossed—elections lost and seats gone. Voters saw the U.S. chaos and said, “Hard pass.

I'm making sure this gets the profiling it needs for the upcoming Canadian Election. The Conservative Party of Canada is using the US-WhiteHouse playbook instead of coming up with a better way to ensure Canadian science shines.

“journals published by the federal government are subject to direct political interference at this time, compromising the principles of peer review and the integrity of all research published therein. For this reason, we urge scientists to refrain from submitting their work to these journals.”
We were asked to change language and delete data from a paper that already been through peer review successfully - "in order to comply with the Executive Order."

This is from the official journal of the US Surgeon General and the US Public Health Service.

So it happened. We have officially withdrawn a paper accepted for publication in a scientific journal because of editorial requests to remove language deemed out of compliance with executive orders.

Great work from Dr. Débora Petry-Moecke. It links nicely with her companion paper which reports on the perspectives of physiotherapists. That one is here: academic.oup.com/ptj/advance-...
