If you put some ink on a leaf, you obtain a ink propelled boat, using the Marangoni effect. The ink has a lower surface tension than water and its flow provides thrust to push the boat forward.

Hi! I study DNA from museum specimens, fossils & crocodiles to see how animals are responding to changes in the environment. This is me with a friend and a cave in Madagascar where bones of extinct species can help us in our research #ScienceIsForEveryone #ScienceMatters #StandUpForScience

So will publications using AI be banned?????

A little thread: Science is defiantly anti-fascist because it pursues truth, is necessarily collaborative, and relies on open communication. And because its falsifiability is incompatible with the cultism, faith-based belief systems, disinformation, and propaganda of Christian nationalism.

This is 🎯🧪

From a pancreatic cancer researcher in my circle

Lately, we have been seeing so many miracles in cancer treatment. We celebrate. That is because we had a great infrastructure that operated efficiently.

I don’t want to live in a time when these wins are far off in the rear view mirror.
2026 is shaping up to be one of the greatest years in cancer treatment breakthroughs in history. If you extend this to include all the 2020s, it's no contest. Do you understand what that means to you as a patient or caregiver and a taxpayer? It means the small proportion of your tax dollars that was used to fund basic medical research back in the 80s, 90s, and (though proportionally much less) 00s may have saved your life, the life of a loved one, and *definitely* the lives of countless strangers. We should definitely celebrate these breakthroughs and this progress, no question. But I'm bringing it up, in part, as a warning. Medical research labs are struggling and even shutting down right now as a result of the drastic cuts and politicization at the National Institutes of Health. So 10, 20, 30 years from now, remember these glory days of "miracle cures" (what we in the biz call "decades of hard hard work") fondly, while you ask yourselves "why did that stop? We used to be so great."

He resigned from CDC leadership. Now he’s fighting RFK Jr. from the outside.
Demetre Daskalakis, CDC’s top immunization official, resigned in 2025 to protest Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then became one of his loudest critics.
