Your math is wrong dude. Let me get this straight. All this time you thought a that an indirect cost rate of 60% meant that Universities took 60% of the grant? 🤦‍♂️

🎯 The takeaway: Treating obesity like a behavior misses the point entirely. It’s a chronic condition requiring medical, behavioral, and environmental solutions. Real progress starts when we separate the disease from the stigma. #ObesityScience

[Michael Mindrum, MD @MichaelMindrum]

📊 Obesity isn’t about individual failure; it’s a systemic issue. Food environments, stress, poverty, and genetics interact in complex ways. Blaming behaviors ignores the bigger picture and keeps us stuck in ineffective solutions. #PublicHealth

And for those that think every grant has a corporate conflict of interest, that’s nonsense. Most funding for research has no such entanglements.

Calgary stopped adding fluoride to its water in 2011.

What happened?

Congrats to @GamecockWBB and Coach @DawnStaley on a perfect season and their third title! It's been an incredible year for women's basketball, and this team was so disciplined and talented. Well deserved.

@TylerPurcell24 It’s like taking a step back 10- 15 years in terms of price it blows my mind every time.

What if circadian rhythms in behavior were more than just an animal running on a wheel? Check out our new preprint where we develop a high-throughput, real-time acquisition and analysis pipeline for the temporal analysis of behavior. https://t.co/Y1k6RJ6EI4

@Kyle_Ireton The meritocracy of academia has been all too successful in getting folks to trade financial stability for titles and accolades. No other field, to my knowledge, offers so little to such highly trained and qualified individuals.

@alexbrogan 20 of his favorite podcasts dont have a single female host, co-host, or guest 😐

Sometimes I hear faculty say that if they are kind to their group members then people won’t work hard.

This is not true.

In reality, this seems to just drive people to make it *look* like they’re working hard.

The best research happens when people feel supported and valued.

@Appyg99 As someone who worked in service industry for a long time, it was always better to be too attentive than under-attentive. You’re in a public place- if you want uninterrupted intimacy, go elsewhere.

@MarioBarbatti Fiber photometry can be subject to this if not thoroughly scrutinized

Happy to announce UVA did fix my pay inequity and said they were doing so before I went public. So I am the Thomas Jefferson Professor of Chemistry with appropriate endowed chair level pay.
