This isn’t even primary school-level economics.

I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000%!!!

If you use AI during your degree then your degree is completely worthless.

Twenty-five years of blood flow restriction training: What we know, what we don’t, and where to next? Blood flow restriction is a technique that involves inflating a cuff at the proximal portion of the limb with the goal of reducing arterial inflow into the muscle and venous outflow from the muscle...

Epidemiological Principles in Claims of Causality: An Enquiry into Repetitive Head Impacts (RHI) and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) - Sports Medicine Determining whether repetitive head impacts (RHI) cause the development of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE)-neuropathological change (NC) and whether pathological changes cause clinical syndrome...

The print version of this article just turned up today. In it, we questioned the validity of strong claims made about causality between repeated head impacts and CTE pathology in a 2022 publication.

This isn't even close to what America has lost. It is alone. No friends. Nobody will ever trust it again. Every interaction with other countries will be transactional. There is no goodwill. You will pay and pay and pay and we will all be poorer.

If true, this is enormously important.

Opinion | A Day of American Infamy A dreadful moment for Ukraine, for the free world, for the legacy of an America that once stood for the principles of the Atlantic Charter.

“If Roosevelt had told Churchill to sue for peace on any terms with Adolf Hitler and to fork over Britain’s coal reserves to the United States in exchange for no American security guarantees, it might have approximated what Trump did to Zelensky.”

General Mark Milley was right . . .

To help master apolipoprotein B, please obtain the very recent NLA Statement on apoB as well as these earlier statements to see how long the experts (clinicians and laboratorians) knew apoB was the critical metric. Anyone practicing CV care should be very familiar with these documents.

In January's column, I examine three wellness mindsets: the believer, liar, and bullshitter—interconnected cogs in a vast commercial wellness machine.

It’s not ageing, it’s ageism. If we all want to look forward to an older age without limits, we need to notice it, challenge it, change it.

'Overqualified', 'slow', 'bad with technology': The ageist assumptions affecting older workers | Age without limits A "worryingly high" proportion of the country believe ageist myths around older workers’ competency and value in the workplace, our new survey reveals.The survey reveals that ageist assumptions…

Does hearing about ageism shock you?

Research has found that multi-generational teams are more productive and innovative, and we know that older workers bring incredible value to workplaces.

Structure of apoB & its binding to LDLR has been solved thanks to the NIH lipid team, led by Alan Remaley & Mart Reimund. ApoB consists of beta sheet & alpha domains, which firmly bind to LDL. 2 LDL receptors act as dimers to remove two LDL particles. www.nature.com/articles/s41569-025-01128-z
