They're right, social media addiction is criminally understudied, and it leads to shit like this.

Cell cycling throttles epithelial--mesenchymal transition
Cell cycle phase is an understudied source of variation in gene expression. EMT is a case in point: this cell state transition that drives metastasis has been studied widely across tissue, stimulus, a...

yeah, it's understudied when the focus has been mainly on mental health in a system that continues to separate mind and body.

Moreover, the rising tide of scams at industrial scale is understudied, but almost certainly a factor in the erosion of public confidence in government and democracy.
Dems taking power in the states should seriously consider this because it breaks Republican power but also because people will like it! Buying a car sucks. Getting fleeced sucks. You want affordability? Joyfully pick a fight with every scam industry and be seen doing it
Dealerships are a massive republican funding base and if you crush them the only people that will complain are guys that own dealerships

The levels of two globally restricted "forever chemicals" linked to health issues are showing a strong downwards trend in English rivers— in a success story for global restrictions.

But levels are still higher than desirable, and their understudied replacements are starting to fill the gap ⬇️

it's not that women have been systematically barred from sports and what helps women train has been severely understudied, it's that there IS a "weaker" sex, as ordained by biology.

i.e., literally the argument for keeping women out of sports all together. ergo, misogyny.

'Heart-in-a-dish' paves way for personalized heart failure Tx. Findings ‘could help improve our understanding of differences in heart disease between women and men that have long been understudied,’ says study lead Terry Hébert, with co-author PhD student Giada Castagnola. 🔗https://ow.ly/vJfc5104k2m

lrp when I was in uni, the queerness of japanese history felt understudied to me, too. I could feel there was a lot there, but the literature I could find didn't expand on a lot and felt quite rigid in the authors' understandings of gender and sexuality

I’ve been looking forward to checking this out since I saw the first teaser. I’m shockingly understudied when it comes to Indian cinema.

This. Women's health care is massively understudied and still underfunded.

I suffer from ME/CFS which has about twice as many female sufferers as male. I have had to see so many different doctors just to get a basic level of care and consideration. Luckily I live in a country with free healthcare

Transmission occurs during combat damage, a period that has gone woefully understudied by the field of public health up to this point, especially in underserved communities like outside-the-game and dusty bulk boxes.
