One of the finest jokes I have ever seen. 👏

Overdiagnosis? Seems timely to reshare... In CAMHS, little evidence of overdiagnosis of emotional disorders, rather the opposite - many children and young people with diagnosable mental health disorders not receiving a clinical diagnosis or timely help Full 'STADIA' RCT: doi.org/10.1111/jcpp...

Quote of the day by @jonahblank.bsky.social who said the following on BBCs The Context re 83% cut to USAID budget: “The fact that the poorest people in the world are being deprived of medicine and food by the wealthiest person on the planet is just heartbreaking”. Yup

Nixon via Vance - ‘the professors are the enemy’ 😮 ‘the administration is aggressive, serious and purposeful. We must not pretend that we are simply seeing a badly executed ‘efficiency drive’ or a chaotic frenzy of action.’

This looks worth a longer inspection ….

A new study looks at the impact of reviewing psychometric feedback reports before a therapy session on therapeutic outcomes. Some encouraging findings: - If therapists look at feedback reports before sessions, these sessions lead to stronger improvements,

Worth stating simply what’s happening. An American government is launching a full-scope political & economic assault on an ally repelling an ongoing invasion to compel them to terminate martial law, topple their president, hand over minerals to America & accept a ceasefire w/out security guarantees.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable. 2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.

Our new paper examines whether asking children as young as 5 about suicide is safe, feasible, and acceptable—an early step in our groups broader effort to build a full developmental model of youth suicide risk. Stay tuned for more from our group. Read more: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Europe said it would stand by Ukraine. Europe opened its arms to Ukrainian refugees. We cannot & must not let Ukraine down now. Please use your voice to tell those in power how much you care. Write to your MP. Join a demonstration. Share trusted information. Don't stop. #SlavaUkrainii 🇺🇦

Couldn’t agree more. But he’ll have secret service who’ll take a pot shot at any dissenters. Could be disastrous

This should be changed asap. If we give someone refugee status, it can't be right to then refuse them route to become a British Citizen. To say they can have a home in our country, but never a place in our society and be forever second class. freemovement.org.uk/good-charact...

Rubio claims that @USAID lifesaving assistance for health and humanitarian needs will continue. But his team just communicated that the entire agency will be imminently reduced from 14,000 to 294 people. Just 12 in Africa.

Super interesting paper with many practical lessons

I know this site only reaches a subset of neuro/ cog professors. If you know a young professor in the area who would benefit from a week of targeted learning about doing good science, good mentoring, networking etc, it would be great if you could forward them: compneurosci.com/Neuro4Pros/i...

The American College of OB/GYN’s website is now hosting the critical documents purged by the CDC This is what every professional medical organization should be doing right now #MedSky www.acog.org/clinical/cli...

For anyone needing a CDC dataset: it may be in one of the nearly 3000 csv files archived here: archive.org/details/2025...

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

Does anyone have CDC Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System survey state level data for 2021 they are willing to share? Got taken down and we were counting on it for an important research project. 😔

This time they are so very organised and so very very scary

Terrifying - nothing is safe it seems
