Appropriate clinical testing of leucovorin and evaluating the role of antibodies to the folate receptor as a biomarker are straightforward studies and could have easily been carried out since the underlying hypotheses were first suggested by Dr. Richard Fry. www.thetransmitter.org/spectrum/exc...
Exclusive: Meet Richard Frye, who studies leucovorin for autism

To those who helped me

I thank you with all my Heart.

publish anything by anyone (who’s willing to pay) with no editorial oversight—and even less peer review. Paper mills are not the way forward.

I see one of MDPI’s 426 journals? I pass.

We need hard science, flawless methodology, rigour. Now more than ever.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell... does not think the NIH should exist as all. I would like to hear from @Ushu Vance, @Jared Kushner, and @Ivanka Trump how they feel about a Christian nationalist manipulating the budget to advance the Christian state.

To predict the behaviour of a primate, would you rather base your guess on a closely related species or one with a similar brain shape? We looked at brains & behaviours of 70 species, you’ll be surprised!

Stop asking billionaires questions, recording their answers and sharing their uninformed and/or racist and/or otherwise bigoted and nonsense ideas as journalism. It’s ridiculous. They are the most boring people. Oh wah I am a white man who has more money than I can spend and I’m so mad about it!
