It doesn’t “raise concerns about” a conflict of interest. It is obviously a direct conflict of interest.

Postdocs and PhD students hit hard by Trump’s crackdown on science. Story by @heidiledford.bsky.social & @humbertobasilio.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Duke is one of the largest biomedical research enterprises in the country. A cut of this magnitude (15%cap on F&As) would result in thousands of lost jobs at Duke & potentially tens of thousands across NC.

Quand tu as ce genre d'idée tordue touchant la sécurité nationale, c'est que tu es vraiment sérieux sur le fond. 👇https://www.ft.com/content/2dfa3c11-64a7-49f6-83df-939b8d1cfb8e

Suite à l'épisode de STAT, si vous êtes intéressé par une histoire de panne de génératrice dans un hôpital: lactualite.com/sante-et-sci... C'était durant le verglas.

Macron corrige Trump en direct, devant son parterre de Yes men, à propos de la contribution européenne à la guerre en Ukraine; la scène est suave. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWZU...

Les prépublications sont vraiment un problème en soi, surtout avec ce genre de sujet et dans le contexte actuel. L'étude elle-même semble curieuse: je ne trouve aucune définition des deux groupes étudiés ni section méthode.

Can your electrocardiogram be used to assess biological age? A new study suggests with A.I. it can be used to help predict age-related diseases, including not just cardiovascular, but also Alzheimer's and cancer www.nature.com/articles/s41... open-access

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

Whatever comes next in the NIH case, the hearing today made it clear how huge the medical/academic constituencies are opposing these cuts. And it would seem hard to dispute that some amount of irreparable harm has already happened to some number of parties involved.

On va être beau joueur, on va se contenter de la Californie.

Binnington devrait négocier les tarifs.

Almost all grant-review meetings under Trump 2.0 remain suspended at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), preventing the world’s largest public funder of biomedical research from spending much of its US$47 billion annual budget. https://go.nature.com/4gM6oW4

héhé

Si les USA perdent, Trump reconnaîtra-t-il la défaite? 🤔

C'est vraiment ridicule de politiser ce match, contentons-nous d'apprécier le spectacle. Pour ma part, je prédis une victoire 5 à 1 avec un but final compté à 51 minutes et 51 secondes par le numéro 51 lors d'un avantage numérique à 5 contre 1, mais je ne sais pas qui va gagner.

C'est donc ce soir qu'on saura enfin si McDavid va réussir à empêcher le Canada de devenir le 51e État américain.

From Turkey to Hungary to Venezuela to Benin, firing civil servants and dismantling government departments is how aspiring strongmen consolidate personal power. Scholars share lessons learned from around the globe: #CivilService #autocrats #DOGE

Although Judge Chutkan declined to issue a temporary restraining order against DOGE *for now*, she made it pretty clear that she thinks Elon Musk is wielding executive power unconstitutionally—and may take action to stop him in the near future. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
