I experienced this as an author! 6 months latter, I am still fighting with the publisher (a major one) to recieve at least formal acknowledgment and apologies for the bad editorial practice. At some point, this will go public because lack of editorial integrity seriously threatens trust in science.

Investigadors de la #UPFBarcelona creen tècniques punteres per tractar la degeneració vertebral, una de les principals causes del dolor lumbar
Mitjançant el projecte europeu #Disc4All, liderat per @jeromenoailly.bsky.social, s'han creat eines amb #IA i simulació per ordinador.
L'investigador @jeromenoailly.bsky.social participa a "Directe Matí" de @beteve.cat sobre #AI
🗣️ "Quan la #AI ha intentat imitar el comportament del cervell és quan més ha augmentat la seva capacitat de predicció i raonament, però segueix sent molt dependent de les dades"

📰 Investigadors d'EnginyEria UPF lideren la creació d’un simulador computacional únic al món per estudiar l’origen més freqüent del mal d’esquena.
🗣️ "Obra la porta al disseny de futurs tractaments més personalitzats" @jeromenoailly.bsky.social

Pesticides Harm More Than Pests
A large-scale analysis of 1,705 studies shows that pesticides negatively impact non-target plants, animals, and microbes - raising concerns about biodiversity loss.

I am begging the science 🧪 bluesky community to please include some non-jargony summaries of your research papers when you post the link. Non scientists (and fellow scientists outside of your immediate field!) would really like to know what you found, but the titles are gobbledegook to us.
Freshly published: @hospitaldelmar.bsky.social & @upf.edu study suggests that functional & symptomatic measures help more than radiographic findings to decide surgical intervention for #osteoarthritis patients @ageinves.bsky.social #STRATO project👇

Together with nine different research groups across the world 🌐🫀, we introduce a new set of benchmark problems addressing critical modeling features of cardiac mechanics - covering passive and active material behavior, viscous effects, and pericardial boundary conditions.

To help people understand the importance of NIH, share what you’ve used their funding for (in easily understandable terms).
I’ll start: my NIH postdoc funding helped me develop and test AI tools that could identify skin cancer across diverse skin tones.

A paper in Nature Medicine reports that large language models can be manipulated to generate misinformation by poisoning a small percentage of data on which they are trained and presents a harm mitigation strategy that can offer a method to address this vulnerability. #Medsky 🧪
