Great @HCTriage podcast on funding in science, how it has evolved over time, how it affects scientific culture - and also the 'reproducibility crisis'. Focused on US academia & medical research, but much of it is probably transferable to other disciplines. bit.ly/3FaUZPz

This is an important and compelling idea from @AlanLevinovitz.
Ultra-processed information is like ultra-processed food: designed for overconsumption, to our detriment.
It's paywalled, so just a couple of bits of it here.

Hey it's National Dark Chocolate Day! We thought we would take this opportunity to be awful and remind everyone that dark chocolate is not, in fact, a superfood with stunning health benefits. *waves white flag while slowly retreating*

The number of self-help books that spit out completely incorrect facts about the brain is astonishing.

Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug among pregnant people...is that okay? Can the drug cross into the placenta? Does it matter when and/or how it is ingested during the pregnancy?

Not a published research paper. Not in humans. Insane.

Self-report, diet quality, and exercise, oh my! The latest study on diet, exercise, and mortality recently hit the media circuit, and we're here (again) to talk about why it doesn't mean what the media thinks it means.

It isn't just "no guns ever" or "all guns all the time", there's a middle ground. Gun violence is a public health problem, and we should approach it like one.
