Me preguntan por la financiación de distintas áreas. Son muchas...
Aquí pongo de ejemplo una humanidades (Historia), una de ciencias "básicas" (Química) y una de biomedicina (Cáncer). La financiación media varía mucho, claro, pero el raquitismo relativo se mantiene... 😕

A unique honor to become a Foreign Member of the @royalsociety.org, together with my @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social colleague Stuart Russell and old friends like John Briggs, Asia Akhtar, Patrick Cramer or Ruth Lehmann. Learning about great science and science history was a real treat.

This is some really cool natural history, but I don’t like the spin that Science is putting on it. I don’t see any reason to think it’s evolving into a virus and the one outside researcher that they spoke to was dubious as well.

I am really happy to share with you our latest publication on turning the inhibiting nucleation effect of silica gel on protein crystallization by increasing the hydrophobicity through controlled functional modification. #chembio, #ge3c-rseqf
