A good strategy BEFORE hiring a “scientific director” would be to read their resume and then to read all or most of the publications they list on their resume. People on selection committees might conclude that a certain candidate might not be a good fit for scientific director if they did the...

Friendly reminder that TNX 102 is simply sublingual Cyclobenzaprine. This won’t cure anything.

I think Peluso and Al-Aly are dueling to see who can make the longest and useless “Long Covid” review paper. This masterwork barely mentions ME/CFS.
