We're doing a thing! Speakers @HHMINEWS Science Meetings will no longer put journal names on their talk slides. Instead display first author, year, PMID (or DOI) like @ardemp Why? -end prestige-signaling -people can actually find reference #nojournalnamesontalkslides

I take no pleasure in being right. Pray for Tua. We saw this coming. Get angry. Get involved with @ConcussionLF to make sure the @NFL can't do this again.
If Tua takes the field tonight, it's a massive step back for #concussion care in the NFL. If he has a 2nd concussion that destroys his season or career, everyone involved will be sued & should lose their jobs, coaches included. We all saw it, even they must know this isn't right

The pharmaceutical companies say they’ll go after any senator who votes to lower drug prices for working families. So, here’s a photo of me doing just that last night — because I work for Arizona, not Big Pharma. And no number of political threats will change that.

Last year, Baltimore Crisis Response Inc helped divert 1834 calls for mental health crises away from police. This year BCRI has a $3,500,000 funding gap. We face a profound mental health crisis. Deaths from violence and overdose are staggering. We must fully fund this program.
