Speaking as a doctor, when someone coughs over you and then says 'Don't worry, it's not covid', that isn't any reassurance. I don't want to be infected with whatever virus they are carrying; whether it's SARS-CoV-2, another coronavirus, flu, adenovirus, RSV or another virus.

Tempaistiin uusi tutkijakoulutuksen uramalli University of Eastern Finland'iin: väitöskirjatutkijan kolmivuotisen työsuhteen jatkoksi kaksivuotinen siirtymävaiheen post.doc -rahoitus.

Post.doc.-paikkaa voi hakea, kun väikkäri jätetty esitarkastukseen.

Miltä kuulostaa?

Excited to see our GWAS meta-analysis of NMR metabolic biomarkers in 136,000 participants from 33 datasets out in Nature nature.com/articles/s4158… after years of work by many people, esp.

Some 7 years of work & some 90 co-authors. 33 populations; up to 136,000 people + confirmations in 120,000 (UKB). 233 blood biomarkers and +13M SNPs. Multiple novel metabolic findings + a pile of data and genetic instruments as a gift to others! Enjoy 🥳

The publishing pandemic, the impact agenda, and the peer review crisis, mean that flawed and hyped research is now strongly encouraged over rigorous and cautious research.

There are no incentives to learn and use good methods. Just to churn out papers and press releases.

Science publishing is NOT a pyramid scheme. NOBODY is being scammed. We all KNOW what's going on and yet we DELIBERATELY continue to participate in the theft of billions of dollars of public funds and the crippling of science.

Aivan naulan kantaan kaikki! Myös se että miksi rehtoreiden neuvosto UNIFI lähtee laakista kiihdyttämään Opetus- ja kulttuuriministeriö poukkoilua tiedepolitiikassa. Eikö rehtoreiden pitäisi olla tieteen puolella?

Mistä on lähtöisin pakkomielle tutkintoaikojen lyhentämiseen, kysyy Tuomas Pernu.

”Yhdysvalloissa – maassa, jota kohti taloustehokkuutta palvova nykykulttuurimme kumartaa – tohtorikoulutuksen mediaaniaika on 5,7 vuotta.”

'As compared with uninfected participants, cognitive deficit — commensurate with a 3-point loss in IQ — was evident even in participants who had had mild Covid-19 with resolved symptoms.'

New exciting GWAS of type 2 diabetes in Nature in ~2.5 million individuals (>0.4 million cases), ~40% of which are from non-European ancestries.
The sample size is so big that now the authors can dissociate the genetic signals in different clusters and use the cluster-specific
