Join us this week to hear about Paola's (concerning? impressive?) obsession with a new album, and Taylor's brush with an instagram celeb. Then pick up your popcorn as we dish about the bad science that lead to the #medbikini movement with a study entitled, "Prevalence of unprofessional social media content among young vascular surgeons." We'll break down the bias in this study that undermines the results, and reminds us to maintain a critical eye to hold researchers accountable. Not to mention, Paola brings us an "Animal House" segment on a snail/hippo, while Taylor struggles to remember the word bioluminescence, and later caps us off with a "Mean for a Sec" moment.
Our research today is bad... And has since been redacted, but if the spirit moves you to investigate further, you can find the redacted text here: https://www.jvascsurg.org/article/S0741-5214(19)32587-X/pdf
We also include audio clips from the Journal of Vascular Surgery's Youtube video which you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUZ43ENm_fE
