José Gomes Ferreira volta à carga com novo livro, onde critica a “historiografia oficial” e alega apresentar “provas irrefutáveis” sobre o que diz ser a descoberta portuguesa das Américas. ⁦@rogerleejesus⁩ e ⁦@paulomdiashist⁩ não concordam. visao.sapo.pt/atualidade/socie

"Acontece que este movimento é apenas mais um de um enorme esforço de apoio às empresas que o Estado português tem feito, sem evidência de que esteja a funcionar no sentido de promover ciência ou inovação e sem a esperada canalização de fundos para investigação académica."

This highly informative infographic by @HFEA on the type of tests currently offered to couples undergoing assisted reproduction tells you everything you need to know on the striking inequities faced by men who dare to ask a very simple question: “Why am I infertile”?

An awesome speakers, free, and online. If you're interested in you can't miss this workshop!

For the past week, he has been working until the sun rises to preserve the follower graph.

If the worst comes to pass — if Twitter melts down or goes bankrupt as Musk has suggested — John's project @OpenCheckNet will allow us reconstitute our network elsewhere.

Say what you will, Twitter has been an invaluable platform for scientists to find one another, share research results, discuss papers, find collaborators, and more. Seeing it on the verge of collapse is tragic.

My friend @john_d_beatty wants to save what we had, just in case.

Not everybody knows that Alanis Morissette
wrote "…And I'm here, to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair, to deny me" about a box in the -80 with pcr products

From the outset, the bioRxiv vision has been to decouple dissemination and peer review. It's a sign of how far things have come that there'll be an entire HHMI meeting on preprint review (Dec 1-2) - which you can stream janelia.org/you-janelia/confer

3- and most importantly, your immune system is not a muscle, you dont need to continually exercise it to make sure it works. So public health measures that let us enjoy 2+ years w/out flu and RSV didn't cause your immune system to forget how to work.

The concept of #Fediverse may be so appealing to academics because it aligns well with the classic organisation of the scientific community. #Mastodon servers are somewhat like academic journals, each one with a sub-culture. It's possible to interact across servers (like publish & read papers in different journals). Also, academic community is usually not about amplifying few loud voices as happens on Twitter, but about inclusive and equal representation of all groups and friendly discourse

Have you ever heard of situs inversus (= reversed organs)? PI @JohannaRaidt connects this condition with (in)#fertility in today's fact.
