@NancyAFrench Nancy French is a journalist who has extensively reported on the abuse that took place at Kanakuk Kamps, a large evangelical summer camp in Missouri. Her investigations have revealed a pattern of sexual abuse by camp counselors, most notably Pete Newman, who was convicted in 2010

Working with postdocs like this is a privilege! Icing on the cake: he is a bilateral cochlear implant user, and he was born about four years after I tested a cochlear implant user for the first time.
I never imagined things would go this far.

@Uber_Support Yesterday my Uber driver took an unnecessarily long route rather then the one indicated by the app. The trip took almost an hour instead of the estimated 27 minutes and the final charge was almost double the initial estimate.

NY Republican assemblyman Brian Maher found out that the story about homeless vets booted from a hotel in order to house immigrants was false. What he did next was great. https://t.co/NofXhHKlDF https://t.co/Q56bDWFaYY

@LauraLabat3 @leagrille No. Grande Distinction (o su equivalente en latín, "Magna Cum Laude") es un honor académico importante. Pocos estudiantes se gradúan Cum Laude y menos aún Magna Cum Laude.

@petridishes My grandson was three years old when he made this statement.

@RepMTG @RepMTG: you are an irredeemable idiot.

3/3 And not a big deal, but animals that were not stimulated took up to 15 days (not nine) to learn the task.

https://t.co/JEoT9G7YWJ 1/3 We are thrilled that Nature chose to highlight our article. However, my dear colleague Rob Froemke is not an "otolaryngologist" (or even an MD). He's a neuroscientist- one of the very best!

2/3 Also, none of our rats can tell the difference between Cardi B., J.S. Bach, and B.B. King. They were trained to process "tones", not "tunes".

[Mario A. Svirsky @msvirsky]

https://t.co/4QeToB0EDt Yes, it is possible to hack a rat's brain to help them learn how to hear with a cochlear implant. Hats off to @Froemkelab, @ErinGlennon1, and the rest of our team.

It's a great feeling when a tenure or promotion candidate is just awesome so the required letter practically writes itself. Sometimes I write that "NYU would relish the opportunity to recruit Dr. X", and I mean it.

@SolBauza Hola Sol. Uruguay tiene la suerte de tener muchos otorrinos excelentes. Dos que yo conozco bien por haber trabajado mucho con ellos son @Alejomvcc y Beatriz Rosales.

@APPLab_BTNRH Cheers! Trying for the fourth time myself in November, and hoping that fourth time's the charm!

@patriottakes Here's what she said after that : “... If the Daily Beast story is true, you’re telling me Walker used his money to reportedly pay some skank for an abortion and Warnock wants to use all of our moneys to pay a whole bunch of skanks for abortions.”

@DaphnaHarel OMG, you're killing me. Delicious childhood memories!

@Phil_Lewis_ On the other hand, you do need a license to fly a plane. You need to be 21 years old, you need a background check and a lot of training. Is the senator suggesting we do the same for guns? I'm all for it!
