I don't have the training to judge any of these adult neurogenesis stories and I wish they would stop. I love popular science and #scicomm but constantly reporting the *latest* results doesn't communicate the *state* of knowledge.
It just makes science look like noise.https://twitter.com/guardian/status/981936880676671488 …

So, what I would prefer is scicom / popsci journalism that ******carefully***** presents periodic recent snapshots of the collaboration and consensus formation, not (artificially) isolated press-release style reporting that the medium is used to.

I agree completely. I think the biggest failing of
#scicomm right now is that so much media coverage are filtered through Marketing and Communications departments, to be distilled into inaccurate headlines. That’s how CNN ran with ‘Ibuprofen makes men infertile’ earlier this year - 1 more reply
