Gestern bei brutalen 35° einen Vortrag über "Wissenschaftliche Illustration" an der Muthesius Kunsthochschule Kiel gehalten - und zu meiner eigenen Überraschung ist trotz ☀️🥵 interessiertes Publikum erschienen!

We're disappointed to see Ben Barres's powerful book "The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist" among the ~400 titles removed from the Naval Academy Library. Needless to say, we're proud to have published his book and will keep it — and his memory — alive.
The Coming Out of a Transgender Scientist
"I know that I am making the right decision because whenever I think about changing my gender role, I am flooded with feelings of relief."

While migration is a thorny political topic in many EU countries, the demographic data shows that most nations will see collapsing populations by 2100 without it.

Is there evidence that Musk regular uses large amounts of ketamine? If so, and The Atlantic says so - than America is doomed! @shayla__love reports: www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science.
Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics".
Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about".
We need to sound the alarm.
