Science is built upon successful stories, but isn't it? This is a nice book to think about the role of #failure in #science. Are we rewarding success with grants that push science forward? #BookRecommendations

#Biomedical studies using #monkeys may be driven out of Europe, as the supply of monkeys available for research continues to decrease.
Factors like EU restrictions and export bans (see image) have increasingly threatened the future of brain and vaccine research in Europe. 1/3

Friends, Elon sees Twitter as the “common digital town square,”but this “town" is not Our Town. It is Muskville. A public square isn't owned by billionaire megalomaniacs. It belongs to the people, ruled by democracy. Instead we obsess over a man we never elected to govern. [1/6]

2022 #NobelPrize laureate Svante Pääbo found that gene transfer had occurred from these now extinct hominins to Homo sapiens. This ancient flow of genes to present-day humans has physiological relevance today, for example affecting how our immune system reacts to infections.

BREAKING NEWS:
The 2022 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Svante Pääbo “for his discoveries concerning the genomes of extinct hominins and human evolution.”
