Fresh earwax is like honey and old earwax is like crackers… Joseph Nehme-Haily talks about earwax shedding process with some great (and oddly delicious) analogies! Awesome work @drdavidhu #sersicb #sicb

15 years ago my PhD advisor taught me One Weird Trick for editing your own writing. Edit **back to front**, paragraph by paragraph. I still use it and it still surprises me how well it works. When I get my students to do it, it often blows their minds. Try it!

Good steaks and good science knowledge too
friendly reminder in times of uncertainty and misinformation: anecdotes are not data. (good) data is carefully measured and collected information based on a range of subject-dependent factors, including, but not limited to, controlled variables, meta-analysis, and randomization
