As a mother of a young #teen, I deeply appreciated this nuanced piece on the impact of #socialmedia on #mentalhealth in teens. If only all journalism were this balanced! Tx @voxdotcom @EricLevitz

@MicrobiomDigest @Agilent It was such a pleasure teaming up on the baby poop project. Your work ethic, rigour and collaborative spirit stood out then as they do now. 💕

[Chana Davis, PhD @fueledbyscience]

I highly recommend this outstanding course on science communication by @KristinSainani at @Stanford on @coursera

Some of my fave tips:
🌟Focus on clarity first and foremost
🌟Cut the clutter

"Why aren't you more open to alternative medicine?"
I love this response from @DrJenGunter .
She frames the question more aptly: “why can’t you be more open-minded to unstudied and under-studied therapies?”. My vote is for #evidencebased therapies!
