“Moriré de un disparo, pero no de hambre”, afirma Fayza mientras separa las aceitunas de las hojas sentada en el suelo. Tiene 62 años y se dedica desde pequeña a la cosecha de la aceituna en la población cisjordana de Salfit, en la zona con mayor producción de aceite de oliva de Palestina. Fayza y otros nueve miembros de su familia son los únicos de los alrededores que trabajan en los olivares en plena temporada de recolección. Todo apunta a que serán los últimos. Desde el 7 de octubre, cuando Hamás atacó Israel, las agresiones contra agricultores se han multiplicado por toda Cisjordania, impidiendo a los palestinos acceder a sus tierras, recoger la aceituna e incluso matándolos si se acercan demasiado a sus campos.'

"Dancer Amandine Albisson performs "Chiroptera" as thousands gather in front of the Palais Garnier Opera House in central Paris to watch the facade of the opera house transformed into a philosophical allegory of Plato's cave, as part of a new project by the French artist JR on November 12, 2023."
"The bat fossil record also provides significant evolutionary insights, although it is one of the poorest of any mammalian order, with ∼80% of the record estimated to be missing. The world’s oldest known bat fossil consists of a single, 56 mya lower molar from Portugal"

"Our experiments confirm that GCs support the side-by-side maturation of B cells with very different BCR affinities and reveal that cells from across a wide antibody affinity spectrum generate PCs. We propose that this outcome reflects imprecise discrimination for antibody affinity by GC B cells in such settings, with the result being PC populations that approximately mirror the maturation pathways from which they develop. This provides the evolutionary benefit of seeding diverse serum antibody responses."

It was an incredible privilege to attend this workshop on cancer immunotherapy organized by Tasuku Honjo & Antonio Coutinho and hosted by the Fondation des Treilles in Provence.
I put together a brief meeting report for the foundation, you can read it here 👇

“One of the really bad things you can do to your writing is to dress up the vocabulary, looking for long words because you’re maybe a little bit ashamed of your short ones. This is like dressing up a household pet in evening clothes. The pet is embarrassed and the person who committed this act of premeditated cuteness should be even more embarrassed.”

"And all the while, the lice have recorded this journey in their genes. A new study, for example, found that some lice in the Americas are hybrids of those carried there by Native Americans and others ferried across the Atlantic by European colonists."
