The editorial boards of seven leading health econ journals are taking a stand today against political influence and ideological attacks on peer review and academia. No matter what you study we want to see your scholarship and will NEVER collaborate with suppression. Please repost.

Love the idea that the flower has different sized petals or maybe the petals are different flowers in a bouquet. Might need GenAI for those graphics! #ISPORAnnual
