This is a depressing situation. It would seem that we could find funding solutions, but time is not our friend.

Some very good analysis and it points to why it’s critical to have some degree of “social media literacy,” so to speak … to understand what sort of manipulation actually happens here. Spend more time with learning offline and reading.

Media and sensational headlines haven’t helped people understand the process of science. In fact, it may have played a big role in promoting distrust of expertise. What are your thoughts? #science

As I sit scrolling on my iPhone this morning, this caught my eye… Intriguing new book on an important topic. If we’re going to break the hold of misinformation and algorithms, it begins with controlling our tech use. Would love to talk to @neuromandc.bsky.social …

As someone who has helped to care for loved one with dementia, it is easy to understand why people would be eager for this.

Communicating the importance of science and research can be difficult, but it’s critical. Here’s @jonesforar.bsky.social on the topic during our interview … #scicomms #standupforscience

Research is often deeper and more connected/important than it seems at a glance. Helping the public understand the purpose and process of scientific research is more important than outrage headlines. Here’s another clip from our interview with @jonesforar.bsky.social.

So, what am I trying to accomplish with TrustLab? Well, it may sound “pie in the sky,” but I’m trying to change the conversation and turn the spotlight on those putting in the work to find answers, solve problems, and make breakthroughs. Here I am using lots of hand motions to explain …

Recommendation to follow both @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social & @defendpublichealth.bsky.social, as they are doing important work. It’s going to take teamwork to overcome the disinformation machines.

A rocket scientist/congressional candidate and a nervous first-time podcast host! Our interview with @jonesforar.bsky.social is coming soon. We cover a lot of territory, particularly about science funding/support and communications. Stay tuned. #standupforscience

Had a great conversation with @jonesforar.bsky.social today. We covered a range of key topics, from cuts to research funding to pushing back against disinformation. Video coming soon. (Note: It looks like I’m ignoring a fist bump that is being offered, but I promise that’s not what’s happening.)

Good morning. Reminder that we will be interviewing Congressional candidate @jonesforar.bsky.social tomorrow. Any questions/concerns about research funding and #science policy we should ask?

I’ve had experience dealing with a loved one with dementia. It’s a terrible thing, and our system of care is not set up to handle dementia patients. Anything we can do to reduce its prevalence is important.

Kudos to UL Lafayette. Fascinating study. Looks like some squids in the Arctic Ocean could get bigger. Maybe big enough to crush a madman’s submarine. Kidding, of course, but you should still click and read.

Gym bros and healthy influences have gotten way too “peppy” about peptides, I think. How much do we really know and do supplements really work?

TruthLab @truthlabexperiment.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

This seems logical/understandable. How big of a problem is this and/or will it become? I assume someone is watching the data on the “brain drain”? What will the ultimate impact be?
