Yup. The only time I received a perfect score from NIH was when co-PI was a grant panel insider. Not sure if just "shady." Seems writing grants is its own genre of literature. You gotta learn to tick all the boxes and pull the levers. Journal reviewers thought our project was pretty worthless.

Come to our panel on Wednesday. Sponsored by @heterodoxacademy.bsky.social , featuring John McDonald.
You should contact Janne Kivivuori to find out more about the teaching program.
Good luck. I hope you'll be seated as far away as possible from that monster ๐คญ
They have a robust undergrad program of teaching. Intro classes, textbooks created by the faculty, etc. What's translated in English as MA is historically the proper "BA." I graduated from U of H with a "Master's" Degree (VTK), no other undergrad degree. Systems vary, translations difficult.
KRIMO at U of Helsinki is very good. In USA: Cincinnati, ASU, U Pennsylvania. In Canada, Simon Fraser used to be good but hear it's gone downhill. Same with Rutgers. U Nebraska, Omaha?
I feel happy just thinking of #RecipeOfTheDay. I feel even happier eating it: itโs Marmalade Pudding Cake! www.nigella.com/recipes/marm...
Those are some choice blurbs! I couldn't think of a better trio, seeing as Dostoevsky is unavailable. Congrats!

Lot to love about this @nytimes.com editorial arguing for moderate politics as the way for Dems to win. I was struck by this passage on measurement validity. Potential reading for those teaching undergrad methods.
Just came across this. Neither Freakonomics nor Sean Carroll has called yet. ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ

Let me guess: We are?
#RecipeOfTheDay is Roast Duck Legs with Potatoes, and it could scarcely be any easier to cook or feel more of a treat to eat! www.nigella.com/recipes/roas...

It is. But it has nothing to do with spelling ๐ซ๐ฎ ๐
#RecipeOfTheDay is the flamboyantly delectable Peach Melba Pavlova! I prefer to make most elements a day in advance (as explained in the recipe intro) but thatโs for ease, not an essential step. www.nigella.com/recipes/peac...
"Genetic variants associated with personality have widespread associations with other attributes, including social, economic, and medical outcomes."
Important knowledge for social scientists:

Example where a public statement by an academic association is appropriate/necessary. "Can't be neutral in a moving train."
Except for the price tag.

As noted, this is a CFP, not an article. The intro to the special issue will substantiate all those claims with evidence. "Bad ideas" refers to the quality of those ideas with respect to empirical evidence; their poor fit with reality.
Again, it doesn't "elevate a conclusion." You keep misrepresenting the language. Definitely not a "productive take" ๐
