    New idea for a science communication account a la mice and risks: tweet out the numbers in the studies involved For example, this study n=30https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7589073/Working-stomach-breakfast-help-fight-type-2-diabetes.html …

        Similar to @justsaysinmice and @justsaysrisks, the number of people in a study doesn't definitively establish its usefulness, but it's something worth considering that headlines often leave out completely

        Micers have been kicking this around for a while. There are times when it's... eye opening. IN FOUR MICE

        Somehow I honestly wonder how they get ethics approval to raise and kill half a dozen animals for their shitty underpowered study

        this is a good idea, I'm happy to create an account for this purpose but just wondering. Does @justsaysrisks and @justsaysinmice use bots to tweet, or is it fully manual?

        Replying to @Eomesodermin @justsaysrisks @justsaysinmice

        I can confirm all risk tweeting is manual. Since I'm pretty sure @jamesheathers legally qualifies as a bot, it might be different for the mice
