    Freud Was a Fraud: A Triumph of Pseudoscience

    I once read a text (sorry I can't remember where, no source...) by someone who had had recurring depressive episode all his life. He said psychoanalysis had been of no use, quite the contrary in fact, because the therapy kept bringing him back to sad memories that made him more depressed. He...

    I have no doubts that some patients are "difficult", but the answer offered by Clare Gerada is so... hum, don't even know how to qualify it. But sure, coming from her, it is not surprising, and quite telling...

    UK Biobank doing an Ask Me Anything thread this Thursday, pre-event thread.

    I'd like to ask basic material questions. What are the conditions that allow the conservation of samples? How long can a sample be kept? How do you share the samples: do the researchers have to come to London or can you send samples and if yes how? And are there tests that can't be run on...
