To the @US_FDA on #Aducanumab, After reviewing the evidence and the opinions of countless experts, including your own advisory panel, I no longer trust your ability to independently verify the efficacy and safety of therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Sincerely, A patient

Some thoughts as I take the plunge into adaptive DBS... tmrwedition.com/2021/05/26/a…

We have failed to care for each other.

Imagine how much further along science and society would be if every lab periodically wrote an open and honest review titled something like, "The case against (insert whatever it is your lab happens to be working on)". Thank you @Hlashuel, hope this is the start of a trend.

Try. Fail. Learn. Repeat. "What may ultimately be more useful for making continued go or no-go decisions is a qualitative assessment of changes to the main assumptions underlying the business case that led you to invest in the project in the first place." hbr-org.cdn.ampproject.org/c…

Is it that people stop caring or is it that we have created a system that doesn't incentivize people properly?

I fear that we're going to see more of this if we keep pushing forward compounds that weren't properly validated and don't actually test a hypothesis. We can't expect society to keep funding failed trial after failed trial forever. Time we got much smarter about how we do things.

Thoughts on a new system for accelerating neurodegenerative research tmrwedition.com/2021/03/16/a…

In the not so distant future all data taken from any research study around the world could be put on distributed databases that nobody owns but everybody can access and benefit from. That is what blockchain technologies makes possible. I hope more people are looking into this.

Imagine a world where patients could safely and securely share information with the entire research community without actually sharing any of their private data. It's now possible, watch this brilliant talk from @verbine to find out how. youtu.be/J3jKROwTPCs
