You expect me to present the summary of the current research projects, doing what we always do; blowing the little work we could do way out of proportion again. Taking credit for what others could achieve. Blowing that out of proportion too. Every year just a little more fantastic, until even we can’t tell fact from fiction anymore. More papers, more grants, more shine.

Science is supposed to be honest and a lot of hard work, hard work together. Years of failure before a success. When did we leave that behind for this fakery?

Let those who understand do the work necessary, small steps, but the right steps.

(am feeling polemic, never mind me and my moments.. )
