Two weeks left in Trial By Error's spring '26 crowdfunder...
The current campaign has been off to a slow start, but it has just passed 200 donations!!! Hopefully things will pick up a bit in the second half. I'm looking forward to spending the rest of the year continuing to do what I've been doing since I published my PACE investigation in 2015--pushing back against harmful science.
If you'd like to support me in that effort, here's the link:

Thanks to all past, present and upcoming donors!!--David

Slow start to Berkeley's last campaign for Trial By Error
After the first couple of days, the crowdfunder is at 2% of the goal--a slower start than usual. It's not a good idea to start a crowdfunder during a war!

Spring 2026 campaign has launched--
Dear Trial By Error Supporter--
(Please ignore prior e-mail-the link didn't function.)
I am planning to retire from UC Berkeley at the end of this year. (I will be 70 in October.) That means this crowdfunding campaign will be the last one for this iteration of Trial By Error, since it will cover my position from July 1 through December 31. (My next steps are not yet clear; I could continue the project in some form. I just don't know.)
Thanks so much for your past support. You will receive a batch of these reminders over the next few weeks. (Sorry about that!)
If you'd like to support my work this time around, you can donate to the current campaign here: https://crowdfund.berkeley.edu/project/49720

Thanks for contributing to another six month of Trial By Error...!
The crowdfunding campaign ended up slightly surpassing the goal, with 568 donations. I took a couple of weeks off and am now back working again. Most recently, I have posted a blog about yet another Long COVID exercise study touting clinically insignificant findings as evidence of benefit and one about a new cookbook for people with chronic illness.
Thanks again!!--David
