Also, the fact that it was in rodents makes a huge difference to its applicability to most people. I think it's pertinent information that should be in the headline at the very least

It was a bad headline, agreed.

I get that this was your intent, and your point is valid, but following your twitter feed it is a reoccurring theme and it comes across as incredibly dismissive

As an unbiased reader- I took the comments to be a critique on the reporting, not a dismissal of the study, which is fascinating! Clickbait headlines do not help either the gen pop or researchers

As biomed researcher who works on both mice and humans, we have to constantly defend mouse research. Unfortunately, we even have to defend it from other researchers, where mouse research faces an uphill battle to get funded and published when reviewers dismiss it as "just mouse"

There’s days I wish for IV Caffeine, but not yet have I been so desperate for straight on brain injections!!!! Thank goodness for the mouse studies. Taking shortcuts here is better than harming people later.
