Five years ago today, we published this piece (👇) on Hans Eysenck's cancer and personality research in Heidelberg's student newspaper, @ruprechtHD. We interviewed his long-time collaborator, Ronald Grossarth-Maticek. 🧵 1 / 6

Completely nonsensical politicization of scientistics identifying and correcting problems in science. - Gino's research was not "promoting progressive ideas" - The problems were not found by "bloggers," but by leading researchers/faculty in the same scientific discipline.
Harvard expelled a professor for faking data to promote progressive ideas...after paying her $1 million a year! The fake data was caught by bloggers, not peer review, because Libs wanted to believe the lie...and this isn't the first time! My latest in @NRO Link in comments

Who has an academic website they’re proud of? I’m especially interested in websites by grad students, and in websites built with Quarto. I’ll be offering a local workshop on building a website with Quarto, and I’m keen to give my audience examples. #rstats

Really incredible stuff by @SciReports
Wrote Scientific Reports 02/2024 that their new meta-analysis on mindfulness & brain morphology excluded all null-findings and therefore by definition found a relation. Still no proper response from (other then many "we'll look into it"). It's been a year now.

From the people who brought you Brexit: Let’s leave the WHO too, electric bugaloo
The WHO is incompetent and corrupt. It will never mend its ways and Trump is right to pull out of it.
