This is what it looks like when a healthcare system collapses. It’s not a dramatic, movie-style thing. First, it’s just *a lot of waiting*. Things take longer, then they don’t happen. Care gets gradually worse. More staff leave. This is happening now. 13/ https://t.co/1OmtMu1mw7

I've been getting a lot of emails from potential PhD student applicants for my lab this fall. Too many to respond to. So this is the standard response I wrote up. I know some folks are on here and may not be emailing, so sharing it in case helpful.

Just found this - someone made an astrological birth chart for SARS-CoV-2, assuming it was born when the first known patient was infected...

Surely every strain needs its own chart though? Or why not even viral particle?

@Neuro_Skeptic You’ve inspired me for over 10 years. Thank you for shining the light on sketchy science and encouraging us to think critically 👩🏻‍🏫🧠

A week ago I read @edyong209's latest article, detailing the horrific onslaught of this pandemic in hospitals (https://t.co/d9ZUY56boA) and this crystalized something in my mind that I had to write about. So I wrote about it: https://t.co/5OTajHWfj0

NEW: The story of coronavirus isn’t blue to red. It’s Black and Brown.

As virus shifted from blue to red states, pundits said "Trump county" was under siege. That hides deeper reality: Minorities are bearing the brunt

This seems a valid point. Times like these highlight why neuroticism can be evolutionarily adaptive.
