If we’re being clear, scientists abandoned the “A” when they stopped masking. Those of us with disabilities are constantly putting ourselves at risk to participate in science.

This would be a great time for everyone to be cool when reviewing manuscripts and *not* request $25,000 worth of new experiments that don’t substantially advance or validate the study...

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.

Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me.

RFK Jr. says he met with Argentina’s president Javier Milei and it sounds like they want to make a fascist alternative to the World Health Organization.

Secretary Kennedy on X: I had a wonderful meeting with Argentine President @JMilei about our nations' mutual withdrawal from the WHO and the creation of an alternative international health system based on gold-standard science and free from totalitarian impulses, corruption, and political control.

Two years ago, my dad at 78 was walking 3 miles a day. Every day. Hurt “his back” weeding and it turned out he had massive bone destruction of the 4th and 5th rib. Stage 4 cancer and he died 6 weeks later. All happened really fast

I was having a hard time describing how a plate of cultured cells didn’t look healthy to a new undergrad in the lab. He looked at them and said, “oh yeah, the vibes are off.” Thank god for Gen Z.

You’re dead to me

In 2019, I was hospitalized with a severe case of HepA about 3 months after running a 1:29 half marathon. Being lean and fit did not keep me out of the hospital.

This GenX-er was working in a Sam Goody in a mall when The Joshua Tree came out in 1987. It was huge.
