Angel has a habit of bringing up random tangential things - when someone's uncle said COVID was a hoax and all you needed was exercise and vitamin D to feel minimal symptoms, he cited an article showing people with low vitamin D being more susceptible to getting COVID <cite>Ruvan22 posted [p:962188398] in Imagine if...

Seems weird to think about scientific results as useless if they don't get born out in consumer products. AngelsNAirwav3s posted... Just curious what field you study in?

I would say "systems neuroscientist" is probably the right designation, though things shift over time. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] <cite>COVxy posted [p:962188798] in Imagine if...
