What happens when bioinformatics resources end—and how can we make sure they stay FAIR? New report on sunsetting bioinformatics resources responsibly, with real case studies: CleanEx, EPD & neXtProt. If you build data/resources/software for science, this is a must-read.

L’OMS réaffirme qu’il n’y a pas de lien entre les vaccins et l’autisme
Contrairement à ce qu’affirme la théorie relayée désormais par la principale agence sanitaire des Etats-Unis, il n’y a aucun lien entre les vaccins et l’autisme, selon une nouvelle analyse de l’Organisation mondiale de la santé.

#OTD in 1903, Marie Curie became the first woman to win a #Nobel Prize (#Physics).

AND

#OTD in 1935, her daughter Irene Joliot-Curie won the Nobel Prize in #Chemistry for the discovery of artificial radioactivity.

They're the only mother–daughter pair to have both won Nobel Prizes. #WomenInSTEM

She stands in a long dark dress with a high collar, carefully holding a glass round-bottom flask, surrounded by early 20th-century scientific equipment including a large glass carboy on the bench behind her. The two-time Nobel laureate is captured mid-experiment, focused and composed. Black-and-white photograph of Irène Joliot-Curie in a white lab coat at the Radium Institute. Marie Curie’s daughter and 1935 Nobel Chemistry co-winner stands at a workbench lined with beakers, test tubes, and glassware, her expression serious and concentrated amid the tools of radioactivity research.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
