I have sought retroactive approval from my IRB for my PubPeer experiment on human subjects. I should hear back shortly, although one member is notoriously late.

Seems @SabinehazanMD may have difficulty spelling the bacterial taxa she’s supposed to be studying. This stuff is over my head, so I asked an expert: @MicrobiomDigest 😸.
