    Social media is in love with yiayia, the Greek grandmother who gives food across the fence to her young neighbours in Melbourne's northern suburbs. But their story is more than that: it's an astounding tale of love forged in tragedy.

    Forgot to mention: The Uni sent the press release to the elderberry company. Who asked not to be included in the press release. So the uni left the funding/conflict of interest out.

    Then we found the same pattern for press releases issued by major journals and our results were also replicated by a study in the Netherlands. 15/x

    Neat replication in the Netherlands of our finding that most exaggeration in UK sci/health news is already present in press releases issued by universities and journals

Ní dhearna @liammannix Tweetáil fós.

Tá moill ar an lódáil, is cosúil.

Tá Twitter ag cur thar maoil le gníomhaíocht nó tá fadhb eile ann. Bain triail eile as nó tabhair cuairt ar Stádas Twitter chun tuilleadh eolais a fháil.

    Seans, leis, go dtaitneodh seo leat
