Happy to be here #medsky to be part of a community and conversation. I am a surgeon and HPB surgical oncology postdoc researcher. Looking forward to seeing some HPB related posts #HPBsky

I care about equity, education and improving outcomes in surgery and healthcare. I also like drawing 🖊️

The BBC's has responded in The Guardian that this was a routine editorial decision, but also that it was made on legal advice. Those two explanations don’t fit together. /1
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

That Trump accepts a Kremlin capitulation demand for Ukraine as "his" plan clarifies that he is irrelevant in foreign policy.
Europe & Ukraine should ignore Trump (the US) in their dealing with Russia:
What Ukraine needs is more arms & money!

Someone very close to Putin once explained to me that Putin thinks that all Westerners can be bought. We have no values; only a price. Dmitriev's prominent role in drafting the latest "peace plan" underscores that Putin assessment. I hope Putin is wrong. I fear for some, he might be right.

No. No peace will come from capitulation to Russia and Russian interests. This is yet an overture to Russia, not to peace.
Trump’s peace overtures, however imperfect, are the only option that actually could achieve a better outcome than the status quo, argues Emma Ashford.
Trump’s Russia-Ukraine Peace Plan Is a Step Forward
For Europe, continued war is perhaps not entirely unwelcome.

Electing pro-science, pro-public health progressives is the first step in undoing the horrific damage done by Trump/RFK Jr/the Great Barrington Declaration dudes

@standupforscience.bsky.social has endorsed Aftyn Behn for Congress in Tennessee's 7th District special election—sign up to phone bank!
Why should I spend my time phone banking on the SUFS Aftyn campaign?

1. The numbers for a win are there! We have to get out the vote.

2. Calling works!

3. Putting out the science X democracy fire requires us to take back Congress. This gets us one seat closer to 218.

4. IT IS A WINNABLE RACE!
TAKE ACTION! Hit the phones with us on Saturday and Sunday for @aftynbehn4tn, and help bring sanity back to science policy. Sign up at zurl.co/5aOiP (linked in our bio) to get started. All you need is a phone and a zeal for action!

Unfortunately, I can confirm that this is true.

I have known Carl for 2 decades and he is smart, dedicated, and quite apolitical, focused on science and getting stuff done on important problems.

Huge unnecessary loss of leadership and expertise.
Hearing news that Carl Dieffenbach, the Director of the Division of AIDS at #NIH (NIAID), has been removed from his position because he was "not aligned with HHS/OMB."

Russell Vought continues to remove great scientists as part of the Project 2025 mission to politicize and destroy NIH.

I think the shortest version of why LLMs are an anti education technology is that education is fundamentally about making shared context to understand ourselves, each other, and the world

And by design LLMs destroy shared context

All my neighbours had ordered goggles to my house before we had any other ppe at work. We had a bathtub full. Every day I’d lay them out and carry some up and distribute - to porters, nurses, anyone I would see in the hallways, filled with fear. The community pulled together when others failed us

One of my absolutely favorite things about Korea is the public transit. There are buses, trains, and subways running across most the country and it's relatively easy to get anywhere without a car. There's still work to be done to make it 100% disability friendly but it is so much better than the US.
This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social
