We created this guide for anyone who could experience a miscarriage in a state with abortion restrictions.
We wrote it in consultation with dozens of doctors, including those who regularly treat patients who are miscarrying 👇
What about replacing papers with a living network of claims, evidence, methods, and open questions, each with stated scope and assumptions, connected by typed links?
Here is a starting point for discussion.
Critical feedback matters as much as endorsement.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Was the UK’s strategy the optimal one?
During the COVID-19 pandemic, public health authorities had to make swift decisions and chose whether to delay booster doses. Read more about the optimal timing of doses when resources are scarce here:

La scienza è un cammino. Non è lineare, non è prevedibile, e riguarda tutti noi.

I never knew what it was. But that curiosity that remained suspended will remain another thread in the fabric of memories I carry with me.
His loss is immense. But so is the legacy he leaves.

In the last meetings, he had mentioned that he had something for me — something that, he said, I would be happy to receive. When I later wrote to send him this photo, I also asked him about that mysterious gift. He replied that he was still looking for it, adding, “research takes time.”

I took this photo of him and Y.-C. Zhang during a walk through the ancient ruins of Rome, the day we were celebrating the Nobel Prize to Giorgio Parisi, in 2021. Joy, science, friendship, everything was intertwined in that moment.
2/5
He had a rare ability to combine depth and clarity, rigor and creativity. His teachings continue to guide me, and his kindness, his discreet humor and his generosity have left a lasting impression.
I have just learned with immense sadness of the passing of my thesis supervisor, Francesco Guerra.He was a brilliant physicist and an extraordinary mentor. I had the privilege of working with him during my thesis on spin glasses during a period that marked me deeply, both scientifically and humanly.
