There's a fascinating study out today that examines the genetics of sexual behavior. This is in many ways a model of what responsible research on vulnerable groups can look like. The science is pretty remarkable too. science.sciencemag.org/content/365/64… There is a long list of researchers involved in this, and I want to recognize their rigorous and thoughtful work. They include @andganna, @bmneale, @jrbperry, @michelnivard, @robbeewedow, @RobertMMaier, @dr_appie, @dralexbusch
