Not-A-Doctor Wendy Weber, a naturopath, has been appointed Director of the NCCIH. Will this mean more MAHA quackery on top of the usual quackademic medicine?

Dr. Vinay Prasad expected us to believe obviously absurd things. There's no reason to trust him or care about what he says today.

As football coach Bill Parcells famously said, “you are what your record says you are”.

Last week I wrote about traumatic brain injury (TBI). By coincidence, the BMJ just published a study looking at a type of TBI called chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), which is caused by repeated head injuries over a long period of time, even those not severe enough to cause an acute TBI. They were looking specifically at former NFL football players, because that […]

For example, increasingly people […]
