Massachusetts Institute of Technology economist, Pierre Azoulay, has demonstrated the benefits of funding people over projects. For example, researchers backed by the private Howard Hughes Medical Institute, which takes such an approach, produce far more widely cited papers—a metric of significance—than projects funded by the US government’s National Institutes of Health. Patrick Collison, the Irish born co-founder of payments technology company, Stripe Inc., has spent the past five years pondering the problem of declining scientific productivity.

On January 17th, 2017, with trembling fingers and a racing mind, I shared my first ever instagram post. Little did I know this would be the beginning of my advocacy. At the time, I thought I was simply posting for my youngest sister. You see, she hasn’t been tested for the BRCA 1 variant yet and while I pray she tests negative one day, if she does end up being positive, I wanted to make sure she had empowering photos to look at and a realistic look into what recovery looked like if she too decides to have a preventative mastectomy. Everything I shared, I shared for her. I didn’t expect for o ..read more

  Researcher Parker Pearman, CON College of Nursing Research Summary Cancer educational materials disseminate complex conceptual health information in print-heavy formats and can be difficult to understand especially when the most recent National Assessment of Adult Literacy (NAAL) survey reported that 88% of adults are limited by their health literacy skills.
