I am not normally an alarmist, but these are not normal times. This change would cripple research infrastructure at hundreds of US institutions, and threatens to end our global superiority in scientific research. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/…

NIH indirect costs fund the backbone of research: maintaining labs, ensuring safety, and supporting admin work. These are essential for groundbreaking discoveries. Drastic cuts to NIH indirect rates are detrimental to academic biomedical research.

Slashing NIH funding won’t end ‘waste’—it creates more underpowered (too small) studies that don’t work. If we want real breakthroughs, we need to invest in well-designed, well-powered research. Rigor + solid funding is how we move medicine forward.

We lose our coughing ability slowly and progressively w/ Parkinson's. What if we train folks to improve cough? Could we improve outcomes and reduce aspiration pneumonia? Maybe, and a GREAT idea. Nice study by Borders +colleagues @MDCP_journal movementdisorders.onlinelibr… #Parkinsons

We enjoyed closing out PD awareness month by participating in the 2024 Parkinson's Unity Walk!🌷 Thank you to the many people with PD and their families who have been pivotal to advancing science and clinical care for swallowing and cough.

Editor for medical journal asks for data when handling RCTs 2017-2020. In 150 RCTs w data, he finds that 44% contain serious flaws, 26% are so problematic they are likely faked. When looking at trials without data, nearly impossible to spot these problems. We need #OpenData.

Using excel to do calculations is like pipetting by mouth - convenient, usually fine, but sometimes you ingest an ectoparasite and lose $92 million
Norway’s $1.5 trillion sovereign wealth fund lost $92 million because of an excel spreadsheet error - "the most consequential misdated cell in history"?

Likert scores are not integers and they cannot be subdued by pretense. Stop pretending and meet me in the warm 3rd circle of stats hell and learn about ordered categorical models. Lecture: youtube.com/watch?v=VVQaIkom…
