@ginnybraun.bsky.social @vicclarke.bsky.social I am curious to know your thoughts on using reflexive thematic analysis in longitudinal qualitative research. For example: research is conducted on a phenomenon of interest with sample B using interviews. /1

At least for today, we need to understand three things: 1) Acetaminophen does not cause autism. 2) The State of Israel ≠ Jews ≠ people who live in Israel. 3) Hamas ≠ Palestinians.

"As members of institutions committed to health equity, we write with moral urgency in response to the devastation inflicted on civilians in Gaza since October, 2023.1 We cannot remain silent in the face of the unfolding genocide carried out by the Israeli Government."

We do not need thoughts and prayers, regardless of who the victim is. What we need is gun legislation and we need it NOW.

A great talk by @ginnybraun.bsky.social on GenAI and qualitative analysis. Can GenAI do reflexive TA? The short answer is no - reflexive TA is a human practice. Should we use GenAI as qualitative researchers given all the harms of the tech? If you're remotely concerned with social justice ... no???

New article out today. A more timely title might have been “How Doctors Become Fascists.” I’ll have another essay out next week on the minority of doctors who refuse to simply go along with violence and who build underground care systems in response. kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

Uncharacteristcally long 🧵 (sorry) re: #Qualitative methodologies, science, and 'AI'. As Qualitative researchers, we should definitely care and remain curious about what 'good work' can look like - but we should be very wary about assuming that a focus on 'rigour' will address this question. 1/13

Important editorial in @nature.com. As I said a decade ago in an op-ed in the @nytimes.com (back when they were publishing stuff like that), "If You See Something, Say Something" (www.nytimes.com/2014/01/19/o...) www.nature.com/articles/d41...

A growing body of research demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of self-managed abortion with pills, coupled with the global pandemic in 2020 and the fall of Roe in 2022, has many U.S. doctors changing their views.

🥲😱...

If you need to remember something from my presentation at #EULAR2025 remember this:

#EULAR2025 #PARE #Highlights: Let's talk about relationships - conception to birth, chaired by Jeanette Andersen and Peter Boyd

Kudos to @eular.org , because now I really feel that I can be part of without losing my identity. Thanks! #EULAR2025

Very important topic at this PARE session! Prof José B. Negrón presents the Reumasutra project. Sex & intimacy should be addressed from the moment of diagnosis — they are key aspects of living with a rheumatic disease #EULAR2025

If you are attending #EULAR2025 and want to know what is happening with Reumasutra, I invite you to the session on Thursday: Let's talk about relationships – conception to birth (1:30 p.m. at C3).

Next week I will be participating in #EULAR2025 with an oral presentation. If you are interested in the topic, I hope we can chat. Meet you there!

Reviewed an ethics application where "AI" would be used to record therapy sessions. No details on the "AI" software/provider and zero concern for data protection around its use. Obviously this gets kicked back to sponsor but it's also kind of wild for it to be described so causally.

No matter how much money you have. You're closer to being homeless than to being Elon Musk.

In a wide-ranging interview with The New York Times, the billionaire Bill Gates discussed Elon Musk’s “stunning” reductions to USAID. He also spoke about his decision to accelerate the end of his foundation’s giving and his plans for his personal fortune. nyti.ms/3Si2WJ7

Erasing science doesn’t make ‘undesirable’ problems go away—it makes them worse. The #NIH is terminating grants. LGBTQ+ health research is a clear target. LGBTQ+ people face stigma & violence. This research saves lives. Let’s not stay silent. Terminated grants 👇🏻 taggs.hhs.gov/Content/Data...

Exclusive from me and Jon Cohen @science.org: NIH is terminating nearly 1000 grants in a series of batches. One, which conducts HIV and TB clinical trials in South Africa, was labelled as a "DEI" study that "harms the health of Americans." www.science.org/content/arti...

Qualitative researchers' experiences of methodologically incongruent peer review feedback w/ @ginnybraun.bsky.social @jeffnz.bsky.social @janeemcallaghan.bsky.social @andrealamarre.bsky.social & @joannasemlyen.bsky.social psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

Living in the same world, but in a different algorithm.

“A group of researchers and students at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health is gathered today for a data preservation marathon, scraping and downloading data related to health equity from U.S. government agency websites before they disappear.”

Breaking Bad is one of those shows that can be seen as entertainment or as a documentary series about how messed up the healthcare system is in the United States.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

Many people talk about the "Golden Age of Antibiotics", but I hadn't seen it visualized properly. Just how many types of antibiotics were discovered during that time? So, I visualized it myself!

Survey results identify how scientific research and teaching contribute to the graduate student mental health crisis. @naturebiotech.bsky.social "Receiving overly harsh criticism or being scolded by a research mentor, and being held to unreasonable expectations..." www.nature.com/articles/s41...
