This is a great piece of journalism (ie: written for a lay audience) of some of the thorny aspects of ethics in human subjects research - participant remuneration, beneficence. @npr.org https://www.npr.org/sections/goats-and-soda/2025/12/17/g-s1-102311/vaccine-dengue-fever-trial21 Dec 2025 03:16 +0000at://did:plc:xombh3iqowro3tui7f64msg2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mahqxxe6ts2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/annehstevenson.bsky.social/post/3m6f7xae7es25This is fascinating. I get multiple scam/AI emails a day asking me to publish in their journals, but I have never thought about in the context of writing letters to the editor. Another way to scam the system which hurts actual humans writing scientific articles/letters. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/science/letters-to-the-editor-ai-chatbots.html24 Nov 2025 16:15 +0000at://did:plc:xombh3iqowro3tui7f64msg2/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6f7xae7es25https://bsky.app/profile/annehstevenson.bsky.social/post/3m3im6vyd5c2tCoffee + women’s empowerment + mental health in Uganda.
