Henry Gray of #GraysAnatomy in a dissection room, c.1845. Gray contracted smallpox after caring for his nephew, who eventually recovered. On 13 June 1861, the day he was to appear for an interview as a final candidate for a prestigious hospital post, he died at the age of 34.

Students: do not plagiarize your work with AI. First, because you need to learn how to write research papers and literature reviews (and you learn by writing and making mistakes). Second, the AI often writes in a distinctive manner and includes false references. Both are easy to detect.

Is #peerreview sustainable? This screenshot of a single manuscript in a reputable journal from a major editorial shows the “shotgun strategy” many editors wind up using, due to the difficulty finding reviewers and receiving evaluations on time. Only 2-3 needed, but 8 did the job.

En 1969, Nixon quiso reducir a la mitad los 20 millones de presupuesto de la PBS, la televisión pública americana. Para defenderse, los directivos de la PBS llevaron a la comisión del Senado que trataba el asunto a uno de sus presentadores: Fred Rogers. Este hilo debe estar también aquí. 🧵⤵️
