Man blir illa till mods när man hör att våra finska grannar är världens lyckligaste folk. Vad vet de som vi inte har begripit? Tack och lov sände @nytimes.com en reporter för att avslöja sanningen bakom "lyckan". www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/m...

La ICBE-EMF son un grupo de, me permito decirlo, pseudocientíficos empeñados en retorcer la evidencia más relevante para sus propios intereses de seguir alimentando el miedo... He aquí un "zas en toda la boca" científico: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Green🌳🌱 in urban areas is beneficial for health, possibly owed to stress reduction, heat reduction in summer, motivating for physical activity, social interaction etc. Here we calculated the benefit for 🇪🇺 due to reduction in 🚗 noise annoyance. 🔊 www.eionet.europa.eu/etcs/etc-he/...

WHO continues to fight against misinformation and disinformation—a great challenge to global health. Governments, health agencies, and partners need to safeguard public trust by responding to misinformation and disinformation directly and effectively.

"A committee of scholars in Finland has decided to downgrade 271 journals from Frontiers and MDPI in their quality rating system, in a move that may discourage researchers from submitting manuscripts to the outlets." retractionwatch.com/2024/12/24/f...

De senaste åren har jag noterat att editors tar mindre ansvar för beslut att publicera eller ej än tidigare. De lägger beslutet nästan helt i knät på reviewers. Det är olyckligt. Editors bör själv veta om de är intresserade eller ej innan de fattar beslut om att skicka ut på review.

Apropos of nothing, childhood cancer mortality has been driven down substantially thanks to cancer research and better cancer therapies.

In this new paper we discuss research gaps related to setting guidelines for radiofrequency electromagnetic fields. Whereas traditional research agendas focus on extending knowledge in this area more generally, this paper points to specific gaps for guidelines. journals.lww.com/health-physi...

Paper alert! We have measured magnetic fields in 545 outdoor and public areas, on 348 transport journeys and 59 homes. 👍Levels are well below the regulatory limits. 👍Our new environmental exposure matrix informs about levels for various living/work situations. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Can support for Brexit survive? 🤔 in this paper with @fresejoris.bsky.social @simonhix.bsky.social we estimate that the declining support for Brexit has to an important extent related to older Brexit supporters passing away (and younger Bremainers joinig the electorate). 1/2
