@LSEMiddleEast @PCPSR1 @ben_d_groom @IDIisrael @pspsr1 4/4 Noteworthy are cohort effects: successively younger cohorts, especially those born in the 90s, have lower support for peace than previous ones, perhaps reflecting their experiences of violence and failed negotiations in their younger, formative years.

@LSEMiddleEast @PCPSR1 @ben_d_groom @IDIisrael @pspsr1 3/4 Key takeways: support for peace among Israelis & Palestinians was the majority view between 2000-2015 (on average 65% of Palestinians, 73% Israelis). Yet support is trending downwards over time since 2011. The paper illustrates several possible reasons behind these trends.

@SurveyCompareUK aaaaà. ?

[Prof. Christina Pagel - @chrischirp.bsky.social @chrischirp]

Dropping isolation makes work & socialising riskier & boosters are waning, covid keeps evolving & it's harder to know about local case levels.

Basically govt plans that we will all get covid several times - like a cold but with a much more dangerous disease.

Not science based

[Dr. Deepti Gurdasani @dgurdasani1]

Going to say this again because it's important. Case-control studies to determine prevalence of long COVID are completely flawed science, but are often presented as being scientifically robust. This is not how we can define clinical syndromes or their prevalence! A thread.

Fascinating talk on challenges and opportunities of regenerative medicine at @aisuk_info by Giulio Cossu and Anna Randi @LabAnna Can read more on "La trama della vita", available in Italian and soon in English.

[Dr. Deepti Gurdasani @dgurdasani1]

Heated interview on Nolan just now. It was a lesson in the misogyny that women face when interviewed:
-Repeatedly told to consider my tone
-The credentials of the male expert were cited to me
-the male expert referred to me as a 'caller'

Can a mentoring intervention decrease the gender gap in willingness to compete?

The answer is yes!

It can also reduce the gender gap in earnings expectations.
