🧬💥 Do the genetics that make you develop a disease also help you survive it? Not much. Our new study in Nature Genetics including 9 disease and 7 biobanks shows: • Susceptibility variants ≠ survival • PRSs for onset weak at predicting progression • Lifespan PRS predicts survival better

Academic articles aren’t intended for a general audience but the public will read them anyway. And if most of what they can download for free is hot garbage (detectable as such only by experts), let’s just say this is not the reality I imagined when I started graduate school

Not only is this bonkers in general, but there are no single measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines manufactured in the US. (Or anywhere else I suspect?) Tylenol is safe in pregnancy, MMR is safe, hepB vaccine is safe at birth, no other vaccines need to be spaced out, autism is primarily genetic.

This is what chaos makers do...

My thoughts on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) causation: 1. It's likely not a single condition with a single cause. 2. Parental & *grandparental* age show moderate non-linear correlations. 3. People don't want MECHANISMS, they want something to BLAME, which makes the research fraught & emotional.

hi, medical toxicologist that knows a lot about Tylenol here👋 Claiming that tylenol use in pregnancy causes autism is fearmongering here's what you need to know 🧵

As our graduate program deadline approaches, we are recruiting motivated students to join our team. See details below:

Many studies have shown that there is no relationship between MMR vaccine and the development of autism. Here are two of the best. This one followed every single child born in Denmark from 1991 through 1998 (n=537,303). There was no association.
