Two years ago, my colleagues and I were sued by Stephen Miller's America First Legal. The Hines v Stamos case — built atop a number of false allegations — was a central element of the "censorship industrial complex" myth. Today, that case was dismissed (by a Trump judge in LA). We won.

Ok boys, let’s do this!!! #USMNT

BBQ is going, waiting for people to show up. We’re hosting a watch party for the #USMNT! Let’s do this!!! #WorldCup

Interesting. Looks like Fable and Claude Science are being kept separate for now. Opus 4.8, Sonnet 5. and Haiku 4.5 are the top options to pick from in Claude Science currently.

So Long and Thanks For All The Fish … CT Lin retires from CMIO at UCHealth I am retiring from my position at Chief Medical Information Officer at UCHealth. I am NOT retiring from this blog!... https://ctlin.blog/2026/07/01/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-fish-ct-lin-retires-from-cmio-at-uchealth/

Welcome back Fable!

Playing around w/ Claude Science today. Definitely see the bones of Claude Code here. One thing I do like is a a clearer picture on you usage. It is nice to see a granular breakdown on what is using the most tokens. I had it map the recent literature in my domain, and I'm impressed!

Beautiful goal by Kane, but damn the Congo keeper has had such a phenomenal game, this could have been easily 4-1. #ENGCOD

🧪 Over 535,000 whole genomes are now linked to 482,000 electronic health records in the NIH's All of Us database. While the UK Biobank has a similar scale, 86% of this U.S. cohort comes from historically overlooked groups. It's a major step, but a 72% budget cut since 2023 dims its outlook. 🧬💻

🧪 FYI - they basically want to take their objection playbook and supercharge it (Re: OMB rule change). Remember, the Washington Post found that a tiny group of just 11 individuals was responsible for 60% of all nationwide book challenges.

404 media always has some really good articles: spotlighting the hustle culture scam of using an illusion to sell success.

Don't do any of this.

🧪 A 68-country survey of 72k people shows the global average trust in science is quite high at 3.6 out of 5. The real fracture isn't universal; it's heavily localized and political. In the US, Republican confidence dropped from 85% to 65% since 2020, while remaining stable on the left. #AcademicSky

Deploying tumor boards for blood cancer care is bottlenecked by manual curation. HemaGuide aims to fix this with a local LLM agent that routes unstructured data into tailored guideline, advanced, or molecular modes. Across 555 validation cases, it hit an 81.8% concordance rate. #MedSky

A 43-day government shutdown and staff shortages have left the NIH rushing to spend its $47.2B budget before the September 30 deadline. The real squeeze for academic labs is a mandate to fund multiyear grants up front, meaning thousands fewer new awards and painfully low success rates. #AcademicSky

I wish I could share a gift link to this, because everyone should have access to this story. This is a company that has buildings that say "Hospital and ER," but they don't accept Medicare or Medicaid, so they aren't subject to EMTALA--the law that says EDs must treat everyone who walks in.

🧪 A new 412-page OMB proposal could subject over $1 trillion in federal research grants to direct political oversight across 42 agencies. Shifting financial guidelines into permanent regulatory policy means appointees can veto individual studies at any time. Public comments close July 13.

Scanning 8B healthcare encounters from 2020 to 2025 shows that patient portal messages skyrocketed 153% in 5 years. What’s interesting is it’s supplementing, not replacing, in-person care, meaning a there is a massive, asynchronous workload hike for clinicians and widening equity gaps. #MedSky

Evolving past one-off diagnostic chats, Google's AMIE medical AI is tackling long-term disease management. In a Nature study, it matched 21 primary care doctors in clinical reasoning and outscored them on plan preciseness. It's now entering nationwide virtual care trials. #MedSky
