      "Someone called Zeynep Tufekci" says a man with 13.5K followers of a woman with 461K followers. Misogyny, ad hominems, medical imperialism, epistemic trampling. Get back in your hole, troll.https://twitter.com/rossgarber/status/1393565817888026626 …

      Today the ⁦@nytimes⁩ published a piece on a medical issue by someone named Zeynep Tufekci. The NYT refers to her as “Dr. Tufekci” and describes her as a professor. A reader might reasonably infer she is a physician and a professor of medicine. She is a sociologist. pic.twitter.com/44deaPq1T8

      And for one of my rarer pandemic pieces where I don't cross lanes much if at all, and the piece wasn't about a medical issue.😁I present much, much better targets for credential-policing, my dude. For this one, an MD would have been less "officially" qualified than a sociologist.

          It's like the time my landlord tried to evict me during the pandemic on the weakest possible legal claim, and during a moratorium on evictions, to boost. (He lost). I have to sit on my hands and not say, actually, here's how you'd...

          It is a great an ongoing irritation to me that so many people get that most physicians aren't trained as researchers. (And many that are aren't particularly strong on things like standards of evidence.)

          ...this is before we get to the history of the title "doctor" and all the bullshit about who gets rebuked for using it and who doesn't. (My father was a computer science professor. And no one gave him shit. People rarely give me shit either, for that matter...)

          Also, there’s a small thing called interdisciplinarity which means that we are able to have expertise and critical knowledge in multiple disciplines beyond our core training. I thought we were moving away from academic siloism. 🙄 😵‍💫@rossgarber

          This is in no way meant as a critique, much less a criticism, but you really should give serious thought to earning a second Ph.D. in epidemiology.
