Oh, Dr. French, what happened to you? Sad to see respected figures lend credibility to the pseudoscience of EMFs (electromagnetic fields). These products don't protect from harm; they only exploit technophobia.

The modern longevity movement? Sigh. How many different ways can you say: - exercise - eat a healthy diet - sleep - don't smoke & drink in moderation (or not at all) - community & love? Also key: pick good parents (read: luck + socioeconomics matter most).

Don't write in academese: "The approach chosen in this study comes with a series of limitations and precautions in their interpretation that are important to discuss here." Translation: "Our approach has limitations." Four words versus 23.

Research β€œoutputs.” A term that reduces a painstaking, years-long endeavour to a commodity, diminishing the profound intellectual effort behind each publication. It embodies the β€œpublish or perish” idiom that has profoundly degraded the quality of science.
