Using ChatGPT intelligently
#AI #ChatGPT #STEM #medicalwriters
Use it as a tool in creating your articles
-- Use it to create STRUCTURE for your writing
-- DO NOT use it to create content
-- Prompt to ChatGPT could include: topic, context, requirement (e.g. outline of presentation or article), suggestion of questions/research sub-topics, language (e.g. accessible), tone (e.g. Formal or informal)
Mustaq Bilal has done a thread on this here: https://twitter.com/MushtaqBilalPhD/status/1621379333943083009
As Mustaq says, if you use ChatGPT's artificial intelligence with your own natural intelligence, you'll be unstoppable. A Porche with no brakes!
What ChatGPT and generative AI mean for science
#AI #ChatGPT #STEM #medicalwriters
A new article from @Nature.
Many scientists are using ChatGPT to increase productivity, but others remain wary. “If you believe that this technology has the potential to be transformative, then I think you have to be nervous about it,” says computational biologist

FGM is an extreme form of discrimination against women, violates #HumanRights, and causes serious health harms.
It must be prevented: #EndFGM!

World Cancer Day
4th February 2023
#WorldCancerDay
The theme of this year's WCD is "Close the care gap". It celebrates progress that enables more people to seek and receive the care they need and deserve. It provides momentum to fuel the fight for fairness.
United we are stronger
WCD is a global initiative led by http://UICC.org. UICC aims to build stronger alliances and innovative new collaborations, mobilise friends, family, coworkers and communities to help close the cancer care gap for a cancer-free world.
Calling all young women scientists

Ground rules on use of ChatGPT in academic writing (part 2)
#medicalwriting #academicwriting #AI #llms #chatgpt
The key message from the journal Nature's ground rules on use of LLM tools like Chat GPT: no LLM tool will be accepted as a credited author on a research paper
Ground rules on use of ChatGPT in academic writing
#medicalwriting #academicwriting #AI #llms #chatgpt
The journal Nature has issued some ground rules on using ChatGPT and other large language models (LLMs) in academic writing.
Why did news on a study presented at ASCO 2022 go viral?
#medicalwriters #AI #informatics
News articles from major publishers used exaggerated language that was picked up by other media and by influential non-medical social media accounts.
The exaggerated language substantially overemphasized the narrative of this trial, and likely played a key role in the viral spread of information among the general public in news and social media.
This methodology, using AI combining natural language models with text analytics allows analysis of large volumes of text to gain insights into the spread of messages.

This week is cervical cancer prevention week
23rd-29th January 2023
#thankscancer #cervicalcancer #HPVvaccination
We have the tools to make cervical cancer a thing of the past. HPV vaccination, cervical screening, and treatment for cell changes can all help prevent it but we need to increase awareness and uptake, and the funding to do so.
Did you know that 1 in 3 women do not take up their cervical screening (smear test) invite?

More on stamping out bad science
#medicalwriters #stem #influencers
The United Nations recognises that misinformation is dangerous and puts people's well-being at risk, and is asking influencers and others sharing info to pause before they share.
HOW TO SHARE RESPONSIBLY
Whether you’re forwarding a message, retweeting a story or watching a video in your feed — before you press share, take a moment to pause (see image).
A rough guide to spotting bad science
#medicalwriters #journalists
From https://www.compoundchem.com/
Being able to evaluate the evidence behind a scientific claim is important. Being able to recognise bad science reporting, or faults in scientific studies, is equally important. These 12 points (in the attached poster) will help you separate the science from the pseudoscience
Stands to reason you should not rely on a press release but go back to the original source of the data if at all possible.
