Indeed as if by magic this person/group/bot posted a heartwarming story about Ivy decontaminating mold spores. Trouble is beyond a 1993 abstract this was NEVER published in JACI, therefore heartwarming but probably wrong. DO NOT trust sources that can not be independently verified. Also…

youtu.be/zTs3PDEkB2w Interesting story. 1) Brexit actually increased migration. 2) Students r source of UKs immigration‘problem’, likely due to our outstanding universities 3) Cumulative asylum seeker retention builds up 4) A ‘hostile environment’ might work but at what cost & for what impact? 😬

I think this is a great idea, might be tricky to operationalise. The current system is breaking if not already broken. Incentivises research fraud. Will prevent people seeing the wood because of all the dodgy trees. #LessIsMore

Phenomenal result! FIRST positive 52 week study of inhaled therapy in #IPF. Benefits were independent of background therapy! 🤩 Along with Nerandomilast this shows importance of cAMP/PDE4 pathways in fibrosis & opens door 4 other therapies targeting these pathways! #FutureLooksBright #CureIPF

There is a section on Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis, genetics & telomere length, a para on spatial transcriptomics & single cell analysis, also biomarkers. But they haven’t been used add granularity 2 classification. Whilst understandable this will eventually happen, so y rush 2 reclassify now?
