Metaphors are powerful, but that also means we should be careful about how and when we use them! Great paper by @evoluchico and @_FelixSimon_ reflecting on one of the metaphors we've been hearing about a lot these days: the (scary) Infodemic

[Chico Camargo @evoluchico]

Can a metaphor ever grow too large to be useful?
What if people use it to describe *everything*?
What if it already happened?

This is the story of "the Infodemic",
by @_FelixSimon_ and me👇

I'm done with the glorification of workaholism in academia. No, it's not ok that you work double of your contract hours, nights, weekends and annual leave. Can we all just stop pretending this is normal? We are in the middle of a pandemic. There are more important things in life.

This is how Angela Merkel explained the effect of a higher #covid19 infection rate on the country's health system.

This part of today's press conf was great, so I just added English subtitels for all non-German speakers. #flattenthecurve

[Prof Francois Balloux @BallouxFrancois]

I should be qualified to comment on the covid-19 pandemic. I'm a computational/system biologist working on infectious diseases and have spent five years in a world class 'pandemic response modelling' unit. In this thread, I will summarise what I believe I (don't) know. (1/12)

Does YouTube create extremists? Does it help them grow? The truth is, we'll never find out if we don't understand how its recommendation algorithm really works. More on my new piece for @ConversationUK.

Imagine controlling a computer with your thoughts, direct brain-to-brain communication or even enhancing your concentration with computing power. This is the potential of #NeuralInterface technology, the subject of our new report out today https://t.co/bPOKrwNVMK #BCI

@MinoritySTEM I get this ALL the time from everybody.

Sometimes I 'convince' people by speaking, because whilst I don't LOOK Mexican, my Spanish sounds Mexican.

Sometimes people 'convince' themselves. I even got, "Oh! I can definitely see the Aztec in you", but that just made it worse...
