UCSF team has engineered a tiny antibody capable of neutralizing the coronavirus
Did anyone else read the headline here on HN, then look to the right at the parentheses that says "ucsf.edu" as the source, then think to themselves "press release from university PR department", get a bit suspicious, then decide not to click on the article and move on with their evening?I'm not hating, exactly -- universities do cool stuff often, and I like to hear about it. But when the source is the university itself it seems a bit like COI.(And lo, ramraj07 and others' comments bear this out: not much to see here.)Edit: after some backlash, let me clarify: I'm asking whether others look askance at university press releases. In my experience, they're often as fluffy as press releases from corporations and the like, which was a letdown early on for me. Does this anecdote align with anyone else's experience?
