🚨 Stop chasing the p-value!
Increasing your sample size will always yield a significant result.
Even for trivial differences.
🎮 I created a little interactive playground to illustrate this issue:

Always pair p-values with effect sizes!

We just finished the specific aims page assignment in our professional skills course for PhD students (and, coincidentally, I had study section last week). Here are a few writing issues I see a lot that are easy to fix if you know to look for them.
This thing has even MORE student presentations!? You’re crazy if you’re not planning to attend!! This event is going to be outstanding!
See you in a couple of weeks!

A muscle with a pennation angle of 0 degrees transmits 100% of its contractile force through the tendon, whereas the same muscle with a pennation angle of 30 degrees transmits 86% of its force through the tendon. Most human muscles have pennation angles that range 0 to 30 degrees

This is a special one for me.
There had long been this idea that the shape of myofibers, especially the type IIs, was different in old vs young. This was partially driven by a great review by one of my supervisors (PMID: 12535316), but there were few quantitative evaluations
💫Just out before the end of the year🎇
Marked irregular myofiber shape is a hallmark of human skeletal muscle ageing and is reversed by heavy resistance training
