    We need new kinds of antidepressants, in addition to pills

    The problem is IMO that "depression" in itself doesn't mean anything. It's a symptom, not a disorder per se and probably due to many different things. But the most common attitude I've seen so far from many people talking about it is that they are convinced that their pet theory for what causes...

    Video: The PACE trial: a short explanation, Graham McPhee

    Thanks @Graham As usual, very clear. "Yet we are told that this study is of top quality. Let's be honest, this is not a matter of opinion or a question of interpretation. It is wrong. Black and white. Clearly, scientific analysis and statistical techniques are skills that the supporters of CBT...

    Michael Sharpe skewered by @JohntheJack on Twitter

    I thought the data were no more accessible... @JohnTheJack will be interested in this. There's a time when you stop giving someone the benefit of the doubt, and start calling a liar, a liar.

    Michael Sharpe skewered by @JohntheJack on Twitter

    Wow, this is truly unbelievable and totally disgusting. It is an empty response, with no substance at all. Not a single trace of constructive criticism, of any concrete point in your paper, but mere ad hominem attacks. WTF What is the link between this guy's clinical pratice and the...

    How to create good quality research proposals?

    I think Michael VanElzakker was trying to gather funding for a study similar to the Japanese one (but a bit different from what I gather). Does someone have better information?

    How to create good quality research proposals?

    That! I completely agree. There are new researchs to be undertaken, but there are also a lot of small studies showing interesting things that are of no scientific value because they used small cohorts and were not replicated. I think identifying the most promising unreplicated studies could be a...

    Michael Sharpe skewered by @JohntheJack on Twitter

    They're both so ridiculous and bad at PR that I wonder how they could have been taken seriously all these years (and well, SW is not as bad as MS). I wonder if that tells something about the way ME patients are seen. Nobody cared to look at this whole field because nobody really cared about us...
