GOOD NEWS! A personalized mRNA vaccine, known as mRNA-1457, has SUCCEEDED in keeping melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, from returning. Phase III clinical trial results in MORE THAN 1,100 patients shows the vaccine SIGNIFICANTLY cut the risk of death OR recurrence of melanoma by ALMOST HALF.
Breakthrough vaccine for the deadliest skin cancer cut risk by almost half
The skin cancer vaccine is based on mRNA technology that helped end the coronavirus pandemic.

Was Merz tut, wird seit vielen Jahren in den Gender-Wissenschaften als »Femonationalismus« beschrieben (Sara Farris).

„Versuche europäischer rechter Parteien feministische Ideale für Kampagnen gegen Migranten und Migrantinnen und gegen den Islam zu vereinnahmen.“

Es geht nicht um Sicherheit.

“These are not typical requests from a health secretary to a C.D.C. director. Not even close. None of us would have agreed to the secretary’s demands, and we applaud Dr. Monarez for standing up for the agency and the health of our communities.”

The Orange Scare.
'Not since the Red Scare, when researchers at the University of California had to sign loyalty oaths, and those at the University of Washington and MIT were disciplined or fired for being suspected Communists, has American science been so beholden to political ideology'

Freiheit muss aktiv verteidigt werden, auch die Wissenschaftsfreiheit!
"Laut des Academic Freedom Index (AFI) 2025 stellen antipluralistische Parteien weltweit eine zentrale Bedrohung für die Wissenschaftsfreiheit dar (Kinzelbach et al. 2025)."
#ProtectScience #FCKAfD
Mit fünf weiteren Fachgesellschaften macht sich die GfV stark dafür, die Wissenschaftsfreiheit zu verteidigen und zu festigen. Leider geschieht dies nicht im luftleeren Raum, sondern in Zeiten, in denen diese essentielle Freiheit zusehends auch bei uns unter Druck gerät.

Die autoritäre Rechte ersetzt Ratio und Vernunft durch Meinung und Mythos, wie auch pluralen Diskurs durch politisches Dogma.

Der Angriff auf evidenzbasierte Wissenschaft ist kein Streit um Fakten – es ist ein Angriff auf das Fundament demokratischer Zivilisation und konkret unser aller Gesundheit.
“Robert F. Kennedy Jr. verkündete, dass er Wissenschaftlern, die öffentliche Forschungsgelder erhalten, verbieten will, in den führenden medizinischen [Peer-reviewed-]Fachjournalen zu publizieren. Stattdessen will Kennedy eigene Fachzeitschriften herausgeben”

Cutting NIH grants for trans health research hurts public science and higher ed—wasting years of work, threatening jobs, and denying communities vital knowledge. Political interference in research sets us all back. #ProtectScience

Our trans health study was terminated by the government – the effects of abrupt NIH grant cuts ripple across science and society
The losses include millions of dollars the NIH has already spent on research that will no longer generate results, and the next generation of scientists whose work has been cut short.

This is bad. Bad for researchers. Bad for science. Bad for universities. Bad for professional associations.

For example:
1. Every award would be vetted by political appointees, who could overrule peer reviewers and deny the award if it doesn't advance the president's priorities. 1/🧵
