Welcome to Metascience Digest

David A. Sbarra from Metascience DigestOct 30, 2026

Welcome, and thanks for signing up! Metascience Digest is a weekly (or semi-weekly, sometimes even monthly) email newsletter run by Dave Sbarra. Each week, Dave curates a bunch of interesting science-related articles, some cool new papers or preprints, clips from YouTube or podcast episodes, and a bunch of news-related content germane to doing science or public affairs more generally. There’s occasionally some humor, and, hopefully, there’s something for everyone. Metascience Digest includes ~ 5 or so content links with light commentary. It’ll arrive in your inbox on Fridays (or Mondays… or sometimes on Wednesdays).

You’ll start receiving new posts right here in your inbox. You can also log into the website to read the full archives or access a clean, ad-free reading experience in the Substack app.

Some housekeeping…

If you can’t find the newsletter, check your Spam folder or Promotions tab, and move this email to your primary inbox.
