  1. Theranos is a company synonymous with fraud. But it reached its heights by falsifying authorship and stealing credibility from other companies.

  4. #GhislaineMaxwell transferred to minimum-security prison camp in #Texas

    Aug 1, 2025 4:07 PM EDT

    WASHINGTON (AP) — "#JeffreyEpstein’s former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, has been moved from a federal prison in Florida to a prison camp in Texas as her criminal case generates renewed public attention.

    "The federal Bureau of Prisons said Friday that Maxwell had been transferred to Bryan, Texas, but did not explain the circumstances. Her attorney confirmed the move but also declined to discuss the reasons for it.

    "Maxwell was convicted in 2021 of helping Epstein sexually abuse underage girls and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. She had been held at a low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida, until her transfer to the prison camp in Texas, where other inmates include #Theranos founder #ElizabethHolmes and #JenShah of 'The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.'

    "Minimum-security federal prison camps house inmates the Bureau of Prisons considers to be the lowest security risk. Some don’t even have fences.

    "The prison camps were originally designed with low security to make operations easier and to allow inmates tasked with performing work at the prison, like landscaping and maintenance, to avoid repeatedly checking in and out of a main prison facility.

    "Maxwell’s case has been the subject of heightened public focus since an outcry over the Justice Department’s statement last month saying that it would not be releasing any additional documents from the Epstein sex trafficking investigation.

    "Since then, administration officials have tried to cast themselves as promoting transparency in the case, including by requesting from courts the unsealing of grand jury transcripts.

    "Maxwell was interviewed at a Florida courthouse over two days last week by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.

    "The House Oversight Committee has separately said that it wants to speak with Maxwell. Her lawyers said this week that she would be open to an interview but only if the panel were to give her #immunity from prosecution for anything she said."

  7. @Viss The asterisk *️⃣ after #Stanford was motivated by the recent *news* from that generally respected university: Elizabeth Holmes (felon of #Theranos fraud notoriety) and Scott Atlas (of #COVID #HerdImmunity endorsement notoriety) both based their false claims on ‘research’ done at the famed Palo Alto institution.

    I am eager to see the impact on life #science of the discovery of #RNA obelisks by Fire and colleagues!

  10. Whoa! #MarcTessierLavigne , the President of #Stanford University has resigned after issues of #ScientificMisconduct were identified in several papers he authored on #Alzheimer ‘s disease. 👉 huffpost.com/entry/stanford-pr

    Stanford was also where #ElizabethHolmes hatched her #Theranos scam, and where #DonaldTheDeplorable ‘s ‘Dr. Death’ during the #CoronavirusPandemic #ScottAtlas is a staff member at the #HooverInstitute. 🤔

  11. Six weeks in, Holmes projected to get out of prison early for good behavior - Enlarge / Elizabeth Holmes, founder of Theranos Inc., left, arrives at ... - arstechnica.com/?p=1953295 #elizabethholmes #earlyrelease #goodbehavior #prisonterm #theranos #health #policy

  12. The usual disclaimer: this is promising, but don’t count on great results.

    If it works as advertised—if—it could be what #Theranos promised and so spectacularly failed to deliver. #Grail is using well-understood technology and (I think) large enough samples to make the claims for the #Galleri test believable, at least. And the #NHS (again, I think) doesn’t have the kind of incestuous relationships with financially interested parties that helped #Holmes et al. get away with such fraud for so long. So I’m inclined to trust their reporting.

    With that said, the usual #statistician’s disclaimer applies: #multiple #testing is hard. So, for that matter, does the #medic’s and the #biologist’s, because there are multiple kinds of multiple testing going on here. The more you test, the more you will screw up.

    I almost appended “it’s like a law of nature” to that last sentence above … but no, it is a law of nature. Unreasonable effectiveness of #mathematics something something.

    #Cancer screening is important, and steady improvements in the field have already saved untold numbers of lives. I expect this will continue to be the case. So take this with cautious optimism. Pushing back the boundaries a little bit at a time, each small step representing another decade or year or month of life—it’s what we do, every day. I want to believe.

  13. 🇬🇧 I watched #TheDropout about #Theranos, #ElizabethHolmes’s company, which is a perfect example of Fake It Till You Make It. The series is not very thrilling. It has an OK beginning and a strong end, but the middle was not sensational.

    🇵🇱 Obejrzałem #TheDropout serial o #Theranos, czyli spółce #ElizabethHolmes, która jest idealnym przykładem Fake It Till You Make It. Serial nie jest zbytnio porywający. Ma Ok początek i mocny koniec, ale środek nie był rewelacyjny.

  15. I have been bingeing #TheDropout podcast for reasons I haven't really put together until now.

    I've lived in #SiliconValley for the last -- wow, 10 years. We were in Palo Alto for the rise of #Theranos. It was always sus in that community -- easy to forget that no major VC invested in it. It had a large and ominous office not far from where we lived.

    And I am a female-presenting person who has founded companies but explicitly not raised VC. So I have thoughts (and feelings). 1/n

  16. We've been watching #TheDropout, a show about the #Theranos #Fraud - and all the scams just make me cringe so hard and not ever want to do anything with tech again.
    #SiliconValley really changed the world for the worse.

  17. "Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes has been sentenced to more than 11 years in prison over her role in the blood testing firm that collapsed after its technology was revealed to be largely fraudulent."
