RFK Jr & Linda McMahon told my university’s medical school to stop creating a diverse medical workforce or else they would cut all federal funding (ie, NIH, NSF, Medicaid, VA hospital)
Here’s a piece I wrote with @michaeldgreen.phd on why that will shorten lives

I’m so sorry Martin. I hope you find a solution.
The lord of the onion rings.
Or “do I need a snack”
The are just complaining about reviewer three.
I’m interested.
Those crazy AI conferences!
I liked this. It was a controlled experiment and the reviews they were testing were from the group that explicitly agreed not to use LLMs.
I find some very specific facts that I pick useful to support my preconceived ideas.
GREAT news for clinicians & researchers. 🙌
BMJ Group has expanded their partnership with Hum after a successful pilot, signing on for two more years of Alchemist Engage to better connect healthcare professionals with key knowledge that can improve patient care.

While the STM market may not be as efficient as some would like, it does function to allocate capital.
I’ll give you an impact factor if you like. I’m sure I can make one up.
Just sending positive vibes Catherine!
This is insane.
I’ll tell you way through. PIDs make it a hell of a lot easier to stitch trust markers together!
Today, a study was published on Science Detective featuring case studies of datasets published on Dryad.
The study is a testament to the importance of #opendata in supporting research integrity by enabling validation.

I thought it was impactful, clear, specific, and actionable.
At #r2rconf we created some AI generated assets in the AI workshop, you can see what kinds of things were generated here mulvany.net/r2r/, presentations, games, visualizations, and a cartoon.
Highlight of the conference for me so far.
Slide showing the 7 injustices of AI in STM publishing: - AI tools simply perform worse in non-English languages. - Cultural bias. - Knowledge gaps. - Language laundering. - Reinforcement of publication barriers. - Economic inequality. - Epistemic injustice.
Very important presentation on how AI can exacerbate the inequities that are already huge in the global scholarly communication system. #r2rconf
At the debate at the end of day one. Both debators making emotive and inaccurate claims in relation to the motion. #R2Rconf.
How ethically would you report AI use on manuscript submission - play this game to find out - mulvany.net/r2r/ai_use_g...
@r2rconf.bsky.social - mulvany.net/r2r/ai_use_p... use case permission map against policy - output from 1st workshop today. #r2rconf
Yes. It’s because of bots. We had to decline something like half a billion requests from bot scraping on BMJ sites in the last 30 days.
@simonwillison.net i just saw your post about chatjimmy, and i tried it out and this has totally freaked me out.
Oh, I see you saw it. I was about to post the link on here.
Good luck!
