A pleasure to be able to attend #ISEV2026 and present some of our work comparing neural and mesenchymal stem cell EVs! Lots of fun connecting with others on our @snevresearch.bsky.social team and those around the world. Thanks to the organizers for a great meeting!

This researcher created a fictional illness, and fake studies funded by the Professor Sideshow Bob Foundation and University of the Fellowship of the Ring and the Galactic Triad. LLMs warned people the illness was real. go.nature.com/4cQabS5
Scientists invented a fake disease. AI told people it was real
Nature - Bixonimania doesn’t exist except in a clutch of obviously bogus academic papers. So why did AI chatbots warn people about this fictional illness?

Postdoctoral students, graduate students and other junior scientists in large research groups are more likely to drop out of academia than are their peers in smaller groups, says a study of more than one million early-career researchers. https://go.nature.com/3F8sZyV
How a PhD student’s lab size affects their chance of future academic success
Trainees in big research groups tend to go on to greater academic success than their small-group counterparts ― but are more likely to quit academia altogether.

Let's remember that Trumps anti-DEI initiatives don't just hurt the "merit-based system" - they also impact a huge amount of research trying to address inequities in the health care system www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Trump's anti-DEI initiatives could hamper pulse oximeter research, doctors worry
The future of funding to study racial disparities is unknown, as the federal government appears to oppose diversity, equity and inclusion programs .
