1) Inventer un theorie.
2) Buter quelques souris sur l'autel de la science pour valider le concept. NDLR : à peine 10% de ces papiers ont des résultats reproductibles
3) Faire des etudes observationnelles bourrées de biais, dont le plus gros est le parti pris

Is there any change in the name of C. parapsilosis?!
Just a reminder — taxonomy changes are tricky, and even peer review can miss them! #idsky
Add Candida auris ⏭️Candidozyma auris.
The only one left is Candida albicans!

Kicking off Antibiotic Stewardship Gems — quick, practical examples of how overtesting or overinterpreting can lead to unnecessary antibiotics use.
Stay tuned for more! #IDSky
A classic example where imaging prompts unnecessary testing:
Renal US:“mobile echogenic debris in urinary bladder—urinalysis to rule out infection”
No urinary symptoms➜ No UA, no culture, no antibiotics!
💭What other examples do you see in practice? #idsky
