As I dug deeper into the details of what happens inside primate labs, I couldn’t believe that anyone, least of all my colleagues in immunology and neuroscience, could be at all confident about the value of their research.

Thank you for sharing, Josh!

As part of my PhD, I've been looking through old whaling catch data from the Southern Ocean. It's easy to forget just how extreme whaling actually was and a few things I read reminded me of the severity of this global slaughter 1/n

@MayoOnTheBrain Thank you for sharing, Leah! I admire your instincts to be honest. Your work disproved your hypothesis, the footing statistics stands on. And scientific research is way overdue for a little more honesty. If you can, hold your ground.

@LeoFergusonnyc @ArinTroutster @bitterwaterblue Doesn’t necessarily make sense, but in holding them you realize just how much power you have over these creatures. In that hold, its hard to overlook how we also destroy their breeding habitats, pollute their waters, suffocate them by heating their waters for hydroelectricity.

[Garet Lahvis @GLahvis]

@ArinTroutster @bitterwaterblue I do believe that closeness with nature and holding a fish can bolster ones efforts to improve their environments, which should help them on the whole. They suffer from humans from more than being held.

@ArinTroutster @AnnieLeymarie @bitterwaterblue Feelings of pain even between human individuals cannot be assessed with current scientific methods. Fish might feel pain differently from humans on average, but they could be more or less sensitive.

I wonder if there are some topics that either don't get resolved in a sufficient enough way to make it into the general knowledge, or are sufficiently faddish that the topic sort of gets forgotten and then resurrected, disrupting the cumulative aspect of science. 2/2

[Aidan Wright @aidangcw]

I wonder why scientific fields, including psychology, revisit and "rediscover" certain topics over time, basically ignoring prior work.

We can just be cynical and say people don't read enough or are purposely selling old wine in new bottles.

But I don't think that's it. 1/2

@maw_tweets How can I learn more about this?

@ProfessaJay Awards and grants go to traditionalist kings that keep to their silo. So much easier to see dominance (and to dominate) when every paper is on the same thing.

To produce 1.5 million tonnes of salmon the Norwegian salmon farming industry needs 2 million tonnes of wild fish, nearly all caught off west Africa. That’s enough to feed 33 million people. The immorality of it is just breathtaking. https://t.co/oSpwSwf39r
