La rΓ©plication est un sport de combat
Et si tout un champ de recherche Γ©tait parti dans la mauvaise direction ? Nanoparticules, cancers, vie extraterrestre, rΓ©pliquer des expΓ©riences pour trancher des controverses a tout dβun parcours du combattant.
Β« Ce sera peut-Γͺtre plus complexe, avec possiblement des rΓ©sultats divergents et difficilement reproductibles Β»

Pleased to share that we were awarded a 2026 #NHMRC Ideas grant via @sydney.edu.au to study/ raise awareness of published human #CellLines that may not exist. It was a tough year, but this outcome shows that NHMRC can fund topics in #metascience, as well as laboratory & clinical research

Twitter/X has ceased to be a neutral platform itβs time academics let go - Impact of Social Sciences
Mark Carrigan, argues Twitter/X no longer holds value for academics looking to share and communicate their work to wider publics.
πFrom 2024... "If youβre an academic who is still using X, I would gently suggest to you that it is time to let go. The platform will either fold ~ or complete its evolution into the central engine of a politics, that compromises your professional credibility through association."

Red YT wtf circle around the black and white image of a fish with a big black eye. It's a predaceous chub.
π§ͺ Here's a science mystery to start the year.
Why are species names for fish and plants appearing in the scientific literature in papers about firefighter injuries, hearing loss and heart attack?
Is it AI? Translation tools? Something else?
