Never thought I would see the day when Tony Fauci, a lifelong public servant who built NIAID into the global standard for supporting infectious disease research under both parties' rule, would require a preemptive pardon to protect him from political persecution. Yet here we are.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1
Dr. Fauci on his pardon: "Let me be perfectly clear: I have committed no crime and there are no possible grounds for any allegation or threat of criminal investigation or prosecution of me. The fact is, however, that the mere articulation of these baseless threats, and the potential that they will be acted upon, create immeasurable and intolerable distress for me and my family. For these reasons, I acknowledge and appreciate the action that President Biden has taken today on my behalf."

Lykos Therapeutics - who is testing MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD - showed off its clinical trial data in front of an FDA panel earlier this month. Things ended messily. Here's an article from me on why, and what it means for the drug's approval chances: drugdiscoverynews.com/why-lykos-ther…

@joannamoncrieff Joanna, in my experience as a science journo, the SMC makes their sources' affiliations very clear. It's up to journalists to assess those sources and judge whether further interviews are required. I have often seen experts disagree with each other in SMC reaction releases.

This is a really in-depth and refreshingly vitriol-free analysis in an area that desperately needs it

My newest piece into the Cass review for gender identity services in the UK looks at some of the worst science in the document, and why one of the main conclusions of the report is almost entirely unsupported by evidence. gidmk.substack.com/p/the-cass-rev…

What can mud tell you about the melting of #Antarcticas most dangerous glaciers?
Quite a lot it seems!
Our exciting new research shows the retreat of Pine Island & Thwaites glaciers was kicked off by an El Nino in the 1940s, and hasn’t recovered since.
