¿Qué nos dice la evidencia científica disponible hasta el momento sobre los efectos del ejercicio físico (EF) en la cognición? Hemos abordado esta cuestión en un trabajo recién publicado en la revista @NatureHumBehav Image
Hemos escuchado muchas veces que el EF es bueno para nuestro cuerpo, pero últimamente que también lo es para nuestro cerebro y nuestra capacidad cognitiva #MenSanaInCorporeSano. Una búsqueda rápida nos da multitud de enlaces a noticias sobre investigaciones al respecto.
En nuestro trabajo, revisamos 24 meta-análisis (MA), incluyendo 109 estudios controlados por aleatorización (ECA; el "gold standard" para establecer relaciones causales), 11,266 participantes en total, sanos, y de todas las edades. Image

🚨New paper out in @socscimed today!🚨

We find for-profit children's homes deliver worse quality services than council-owned homes.

Privatisation across children's social care worsens Local Authority performance.

#OpenAccess available here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thread: Image
We detail how for-profit children's homes have come to dominate the provision of residential care.

Over 80% of children's homes are now run by for-profit companies...
We then compare the performance of children's homes to see if ownership status matters for quality of service.

Across all domains of Ofsted inspections - it does!

Local Authority run homes are the best: Image

I donated my PhD present to @FlyBaseDotOrg flybase.org, which had a major funding cut. THE genes & genomes & stocks database for #Drosophila research! Scientists, could you do your work without databases of this kind? Here's how I needed them 🧵
(1) The power of #Drosophila comes with the community stock centres. @FlyBaseDotOrg is the prime spot to look up stocks for your gene of interest. Our mitochondrial SAM paper in @ScienceAdvances started here.
(2) We @WredenbergLab donated our SAMC fly lines to the community and I was absolutely amazed by the help we got during the process from @flystocks and @FlyBaseDotOrg, who made sure the stock nomenclature was correct, boosting #ReproducibleResearch.
