This episode features behavioural neuroscientist and academic sleuth with a seriously impressive resume spotting research fraud, Dr Mu Yang, PhD. The topic - research fraud and it's many flavors. What's the problem, why does it appear to be on the rise, what are the science factors driving it, can we trust peer review and… can science be trusted to self correct? And for that to happen, what else has to fall into place?  Interested in supporting the podcast? Please share, subscribe and write a review!

Is it okay to use large language models in the research process? For what task, exactly, and to automate the task or to augment the researcher? In this episode, we try to explore whether and how LLMs could be used in five aspects of the research process - for paper writing, reviewing, data analysis, as a subject of research, or as a surrogate for research subjects. We also discuss whether they should be used at all, and what some long-term consequences could be of such a choice, and we develop a number of heuristic rules to help researcher make decisions about using LLMs for research.

Audio from the 2024 Charleston Conference Leadership Interview Series. Meg White, Senior Consultant, Delta Think interviews Yulia Sevryugina, Senior Associate Librarian, University of Michigan. Yulia is an active researcher and an author. She transitioned into a career in librarianship specializing in scholarly communications to achieve a better work life balance.   She says part of the research life cycle is sharing the results of your work with the world so that others can continue and improve it further. Yulia believes scholarly communication is very important for sharing research findings and that publishers are important in creating mini communities and combining people with similar research goals to share their experiences.   Yulia emphasizes the role of librarians in supporting researchers and in educating researchers about publishing ethics. Collaboration among librarians, publishers and researchers is key for research integrity and for the credibility of academic work.

Matt, Grant, and Randy finish up the discussion on peer-review publication highlighting their process for selecting journals, getting the submission ready, the review and handling rejections. Randy describes the process as both an author and an associate editor.From this episode:"Randy, what happens after an author submits a paper? How how does that work from a journal standpoint?""Well, it goes through their process, and then the editor or the chief editor distributes it down to the editor in charge of the paper, which then contacts and associates that paper, with the appropriate associate editor. And then at that time, the associate editor is responsible for creating a review team comprised of typically two to three reviewers."

What are the 180-year-old rules that prevent MPs from debating issues about the Royal Family? As Donald Trump floats the idea of “clearing out” Gaza, what lies ahead for Palestinians returning home?

  We are in our sixth year of the podcast and I'm in the middle of my 20th year as a sports medicine physician. Twenty years flew by which means I've probably passed the halfway point in my medical career, unless I feel inspired to still be seeing patients in my seventies, which seems highly unlikely. I thought it would be fun to look back at the last twenty years and talk with a trusted colleague who helped me on this path and what's maybe surprised us in how we deal with sports medicine issues and where we think things may head the rest of our careers.    Connect with The Host!

The discussion highlights the role of embalmers in uncovering medical anomalies and raises concerns about the broader health impacts of these findings. In this segment of the conversation, Dr. Sam Sigoloff and Richard Hirschman delve into the perplexing phenomenon of clot formation in both veins and arteries, particularly in the context of COVID-19. They discuss the implications of autopsy findings, the unusual presence of amyloid clots, and the potential connections to vaccines. The dialogue also touches on the role of lipid nanoparticles and the broader implications of emergency use authorization in the context of public health and safety. In this conversation, Richard Hirschman and Dr. Sam Sigoloff delve into the alarming discovery of micro-clots in blood samples, potentially linked to vaccines and COVID-19. They discuss the challenges faced in medical research, the erosion of trust in the medical system, and the ethical dilemmas surrounding the reporting of vaccine-related injuries. The dialogue emphasizes the need for further investigation into the causes of these clots and a collective call to action for the medical community and society at large.TakeawaysRichard Hirschman has documented over 200 unusual clots since 2021.The clots are unlike anything seen prior to the pandemic.Amyloid proteins are being found in these clots, raising health concerns.The presence of amyloid in the bloodstream is alarming.There is a potential link between these clots and vaccine injuries.Embalmers are observing changes in blood that are not typical post-mortem clots.The clots are dense and do not fall apart like normal clots.There is a need for further research into the nature of these clots.The conversation highlights the importance of embalmers in medical discoveries.The findings could explain various health issues being reported post-vaccination. Autopsies typically focus on organ examination, not detailed vascular analysis.Clots are usually found in veins, not arteries, raising concerns about new findings.The presence of amyloid in clots suggests a significant change in clot composition post-COVID.Vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia is a rare but concerning phenomenon.Lipid nanoparticles may play a role in abnormal clotting mechanisms.Emergency use authorization was declared amidst a perceived attack on public health.The presence of amyloid-like structures in blood raises questions about vaccine safety.Research indicates a potential link between spike proteins and abnormal clotting.The discussion highlights the need for further investigation into vaccine-related health issues.The conversation emphasizes the importance of transparency in medical research and public health policies. There is a significant presence of micro-clots in blood samples.Micro-clots may be linked to a new blood-borne amyloid clotting syndrome.Observation and documentation are crucial in identifying unusual medical phenomena.Medical research faces challenges in funding and peer review processes.Trust in the medical system has been severely impacted by COVID-19 protocols.The correlation between vaccines and abnormal clots is a growing concern.Ethical dilemmas arise when reporting potential vaccine injuries.Not everyone experiences the same reactions to vaccines, but harm does occur.A spiritual perspective is essential in addressing the current health crisis.Community leaders must advocate for truth and transparency in medical practices.lf you like my t-shirt please get one here:

In this episode of Wildlife By The Numbers, Matt and Grant, a duo who has been co-authoring papers together for over a decade, give a candid discussion on publication to share your work. They have a lively discussion of how they write a scientific paper, and dive into the Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion sections of a paper sharing how their writing was influenced by their professors as well. They have saved the abstract, editing, proofing, and deciding which journal to submit to for another episode.Quotes from this episode..."Writing is the backbone of what scientists do, and it's extremely important to write up what you're doing and present that in a format that has been reviewed by other scientists. At the most basic level, folks can understand that you wanna share your knowledge. But there's a number of reasons why you want to write a scientific paper, have that go through a a rigorous peer review, and then publish it. One of them is, as I just said, you wanna share the information so others can learn from it and others can build off it and improve and contribute to the field of wildlife biology or ecology or whatever science your your discipline you're working with and advance that field, help folks understand the issue that you're working on because it may it may spur other questions that they have or help them with the work that they're doing. Scientific writing also in that peer review process also brings credibility to your work.""Why in the world do we use such a format? Why is it not like if I do a presentation at a scientific meeting, I may do some methods and results to discuss that, and then start over again. And do that multiple times even for one smaller type that might be a chapter in a thesis or dissertation. I'm not gonna roll all my results together and talk through all those individual results and then discuss all of them afterwards, it just doesn't flow very well. So why in the world do we do it that way?""What Stuart has impressed upon me is in your introduction, you have the first three hundred words is what's gonna grab your reader. And in that first three hundred words, you should speak to what the issue is that you're addressing, why it's important, why it matters, and then how you resolve it. So the first three hundred words, what's the issue? Why does it matter? And then how do you address it? And that's how he taught me to write it."

Hey Team! We're diving right back into the world of ADHD research, continuing on from what we were talking about a few episodes back. In this episode, we're going to be more focused on what goes into making ADHD research reliable. I go in-depth into what you can expect to find when reading a study and then also into what thing to look out for when trying to determine what's really going on in those studies. We'll discuss how to navigate the sometimes confusing world of peer-reviewed journals, why sample sizes matter, and what to watch out for when it comes to conflicts of interest (I mean, everyone is interested in how ADHD research is funded, right?). This piece was also initially going to cover misinformation, but with how much ended up going into everything else, I'm saving that for next week.

The peer-review process will cover many of the other steps that we discussed in this episode. While there is value in some non-peer-reviewed work, it's important that we approach it with a skeptical lens. However, with that first tip, we should also know that we shouldn't view peer-reviewed journals as a beginner's source. They are written with the expectation of other experts as the intended audience, and without the prerequisite knowledge, it can be easy to misinterpret what is being said. One of the largest concerns about ADHD research comes from worries that pharmaceutical money will introduce bias into many of the studies; however, most research is actually funded through government grants, and the peer-review process is designed to help identify conflicts of interest and eliminate any bias that may be present.

Andy May is a writer. He is a retired petrophysicist and has published four books. He worked on oil, gas and CO2 fields in the USA, Argentina, Brazil, Indonesia, Thailand, China, UK North Sea, Canada, Mexico, Venezuela and Russia. He specialized in shale petrophysics, fractured reservoirs, wireline and core image interpretation and capillary pressure analysis, besides conventional log analysis. In this episode, climate science writer Andy May highlights his criticisms of mainstream climate change consensus and the suppression of non-consensus ideas. May discusses historical and recent examples of censorship in scientific publishing, arguing that peer review is broken and that important dissenting voices are often silenced. He concludes with skepticism about the effectiveness of the IPCC and COP meetings, emphasizing the need for open scientific discourse free from political influence. 00:00 Introduction and Background 00:39 Suppression of Non-Consensus Climate Ideas 01:18 Case Studies of Rejected Papers 04:21 The Role of Peer Review in Climate Science 06:55 Historical Examples of Suppressed Scientific Work 08:37 Current Climate Science Debates 13:06 IPCC Reports and Political Influence 16:52 Sea Level Rise and Climate Models 20:18 Solar Activity and Climate Change 23:41 Censorship and Its Impact on Science 29:29 Future of Climate Science and Peer Review 32:12 Concluding Thoughts and Audience Q&A Slide, summary, and transcript for this podcast are available here: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries https://andymaypetrophysicist.com/ https://x.com/Andy_May_Writer Related article: https://andymaypetrophysicist.com/2024/09/27/suppression-of-science-and-inconvenient-truths/ ========= AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL89cj_OtPeenLkWMmdwcT8Dt0DGMb8RGR X: https://twitter.com/TomANelson Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about

In this episode of Join the Docs, our ever-curious hosts, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest, take a deep dive into the labyrinthine world of medical research. With their signature blend of wit and wisdom, they aim to demystify the intricate processes behind drug discovery and clinical trials, making it as clear as a well-written prescription minus the totally illegible doctor's handwriting of course!How does Professor Sackier set the tone for the discussion? He compares drug discovery to dating. You have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince—or in this case, your blockbuster drug! Dr. Guest, not to be outdone, quips back, "And just like dating, it can cost you an arm and a leg, but hopefully not your liver!"The  Docs delve into the various types of research, from basic science to clinical studies with a nod to the ridiculous. Ethical considerations are next on the menu, and Dr. Guest serves up a hearty helping of humour. The Docs discuss the importance of informed consent, patient safety, and the moral dilemmas that can arise, all while keeping the tone light and engaging. However, sometimes people go astray and medics are not immune; The Docs explore cases where some very naughty people did rather terrible things with publications - you won't want to miss these stories!The episode emphasises the role of curiosity and the unwavering commitment to improving patient care as the key motivators for doctors. Curiosity didn't just kill the cat, says Sackier, it also cured it! Well, metaphorically speaking, of course. They share heartwarming and hilarious anecdotes about their own experiences in the field, making the complex topic relatable and entertaining.With their infectious humour and deep knowledge, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest make this episode of Join the Docs a must-listen for anyone curious about the world of medical research. So grab your lab coat and stethoscope, and get ready for a rollercoaster ride through the fascinating, funny, and sometimes downright bizarre world of drug discovery and clinical trials!—--DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on Join the Docs are those of Dr. Nigel Guest, Jonathan Sackier and other people on our show.

We sit down, in-person, with the unorthodox mathematical theorist and actor, Terrence Howard. Terrence joins us to discuss his geometric model of physical reality, which resurrects the luminiferous aether...sort of. Instead of taking the aether to be a formless fluid, Terrence proposes a subunit structure for the fabric of reality, which is based on a fractal system of three dimensional shapes. We discuss the need for physical alternatives to the 'fabric of spacetime,' challenges to the standard models, why the aether was initially abandoned, and then take a walk through his geometric universe - complete with actual physical models of Terrence's aetheric structures.

Viral vectors are a cornerstone of gene therapy and many employ experts in the viral vector services space to help design and produce their specialty vectors. These service providers are experts at making sure you get the vector you want with a titer and purity you need for your application. We're joined in this episode by Dr. Cliff Froelich, Head of Analytical Development for a viral vector services provider. Cliff and his team work with AAV, lentivirus, and other vectors to support multiple, and simultaneous, client projects. Specifically, we dive into how they use various analytical and molecular methods to monitor and assess identity, strength, purity, impurities, potency, efficiency, empty/full ratios, safety, and more. As you might expect, it's not a one-method-does-it-all approach or solution. Yes, digital PCR is in the mix here, and Cliff does a great job of outlining where it shines relative to the other methods they use regularly in their GMP practice. In our career corner portion, you'll hear about Cliff's circuitous career path, which includes stints in the poultry industry and time as a clinical dietitian. Through it all, and into his current role, Cliff brings a passion and genuine interest for the science and its potential to affect lives. Visit the Absolute Gene-ius pageto learn more about the guests, the hosts, and the Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Absolute Q Digital PCR System.

Welcome to episode #941 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #941. He is a finance professor at London Business School, and Alex Edmans knows his stuff. With a background that spans Morgan Stanley and a PhD from MIT, Alex's insights on corporate finance, responsible business, and behavioral finance are top-notch. He's a TED talk star, with millions of views, and his research has been featured everywhere from the World Economic Forum to the UK Parliament. In our conversation, Alex dives into his latest book, May Contain Lies - How Stories, Statistics, and Studies Exploit Our Biases – And What We Can Do About It (he is also the author of Grow The Pie and Principles of Corporate Finance). We explore the tricky terrain of our post-truth world and the fine line between fact and fiction and conspiracy theories. Alex breaks down the role of statistical significance and why simple messages can be so appealing — and misleading. It's not just about the facts... it's about how they get twisted. We also tackle the financial incentives that drive misinformation. Alex is big on critical thinking and urges us all to look beyond the surface. He explains the ladder of mis-inference, making it clear why we need to understand the differences between statements, facts, data, and evidence. We get into the weeds about peer review in academic research and the biases that can creep in. Alex talks about the internet's role in spreading misinformation and how social media can create echo chambers. He's all about teaching critical thinking early and often. I loved reading May Contain Lies... and it really is more than just a book - it's a guide to navigating the murky waters of modern information. Alex uses real-world examples to show how biases distort our views and decision-making. He offers practical tips to cut through the noise and think smarter. So, if you're tired of being misled and want to make better decisions (and, who isn't always fooled by “facts”?), take a listen. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:00:43.

This week's music: David Usher 'St. Lawrence River'. Takeaways The concept of a post-truth world goes beyond the question of whether something is factually true or not. It also includes the potential for misleading inferences drawn from accurate information. Statistical significance can help evaluate the reliability of claims, but it is important to consider the broader context and potential biases in interpreting the results. Simplistic messages that align with people's pre-existing views are more likely to be accepted and shared, even if they lack scientific rigor or evidence. The prevalence of misinformation is driven by financial incentives and the desire for quick fixes and easy solutions. While misinformation poses challenges, there are also opportunities for more nuanced and informed discussions, particularly among open-minded individuals who value scientific consensus. AI can be both a solution and a problem in addressing misinformation, as it can help identify scientific consensus but also be used to spread false information. Peer review is a useful but imperfect process for evaluating the accuracy and quality of academic research. Being discerning consumers of information requires recognizing our own biases and questioning the validity of statements, facts, data, and evidence. Teaching critical thinking from a young age is essential to combat misinformation and make informed decisions. Being discerning does not mean being overly suspicious, but rather applying critical thinking to important decisions and recognizing the limitations of evidence.

Photographs of “orbs” – small circular or globular lights – that are invisible to the naked eye at the time of the photography are ubiquitous on the internet. Very little scientific research has been conducted to explain the photographic phenomenon. Most of the discussion online asserts that orbs are spirits or some other energy life form. Is this true or is there a coherent, conventional explanation? In this episode, we survey the available literature and consider examples of orbs in photographs.Three resources:Luciano Pederzoli, “Photos of Globes (Orbs): An Analysis,” updated article from SSRN (Social Science Research Network), 12/01/2017Gary E. Schwartz and Katherine Creath, “Anomalous Orbic ‘Spirit' Photographs: A Conventional Optical Explanation,” Journal of Scientific Exploration 19:3 (2005): 343-358Dave Wood, “The Orb Zone: Accounts of Experimentation into the Natural Causes of ‘Orbs',” Journal for the Society of Psychical Research 76:1, no 906 (January 2012): 17-31

ORIGINAL AIR DATE: FEB 6, 2019Many people have experienced déjà vu, the feeling that a situation or event is familiar, though there is no evidence that the situation has been experienced before. Recent studies have shown that roughly two-thirds of people have experienced déjà vu at least once. This episode explores three research articles chronicling the phenomenon and its elements and the range of proposed explanations for it.Research articles:Alan S. Brown, “A Review of the Déjà Vu Experience,” Psychology Bulletin Vol. 129, No. 3 (2003: 394–413Anne. M.

ORIGINAL AIR DATE: AUG 1, 2018This episode is the final in our series on quantum mechanics and its presumed relationship to metaphysical ideas, religion, theology, and the paranormal. As in Part 1 and Part 2, our panel welcomes Dr. Rob (“Putty”) Putman, who holds a PhD in theoretical quantum physics, but who is presently pastoring a church in Illinois. In this third and final episode, we focus on the phenomenon of quantum entanglement and ask questions about quantum computing and what metaphysical statements are reasonable to make on the basis of entanglement. Is everything in the universe connected? Is the statement “all is one” scientifically valid?Resources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8Ia3kcQydc&list=WL&t=0s&index=87https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMWo-rhlpmQ

ORIGINAL AIR DATE: JULY 1, 2018This episode continues our series on quantum mechanics and its presumed relationship to metaphysical ideas, religion, theology, and the paranormal. As in Part 1, our panel welcomes Dr. Rob (“Putty”) Putman, who holds a PhD in theoretical quantum physics, but who is presently pastoring a church in Illinois. In this second episode, we focus on how (or whether) quantum mechanics relates to the subject of (1) other dimensions; (2) whether one of those other dimensions is the spiritual realm talked about in the Bible and other religious texts, and (3) fears about what's happening at CERN in regard to puncturing holes into other dimensions releasing demons. Are such ideas coherent? Are they justifiable in light of the science?Video Resources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWyTxCsIXE4&list=WL&t=0s&index=86

ORIGINAL AIR DATE: JUNE 5, 2018This episode launches a series on quantum mechanics and its presumed relationship to metaphysical ideas, religion, theology, and the paranormal. During the series we'll be joined by Dr. Rob (“Putty”) Putman, who holds a PhD in theoretical quantum physics, but now pastors a church in Illinois. In this first episode, we survey the history of quantum mechanics and talk about how some of the important ideas are used to make metaphysical statements about all of reality—statements that are inherently theological and religious. Are such statements accurate? What can we really say about the nature of reality and God on the basis of quantum physics?Links:William E.
