“There is an immeasurable level of anxiety.” For many scientists from the U.S., moving abroad has become a lifeline: a way to pursue world-class research without fighting against the funding cuts and disruptive policies currently stifling American science. A highly recommended article from the research magazine 'Scientific American' https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/u-s-scientists-are-being-lured-abroad-and-they-arent-looking-back/ #research #freedomofscience

#Research study finds that stronger #rainforest protection means lower air #pollution particulate matter in the #Amazon resulting in saving an estimated 680 human lives each year. Resist when you shop, be #vegan and #Boycottpalmoil @palmoildetectives@mastodonapp.uk https://wp.me/pcFhgU-9bw

"It really has come to this in America. Censorship is real. America needs to stand up. Scientists, stand up. Physicians, stand up." - Aaron Kelly, PhD Members of the American Diabetes Association, one of them a past president of the organization, were shoved, harassed and escorted by police out of a New Orleans convention centre, during the annual meeting of the American Diabetes Association (#ADA2026), on Friday, as they were handing out copies of an editorial criticizing Trump administration changes to US biomedical research. The group were threatened to be arrested for handing out the editorial. https://www.medpagetoday.com/special-reports/exclusives/121619 #Research #Science #Diabetes #Censorship #Medicine

#IT researchers demonstrate adaptive #AI #worm source: heise.de/en/news/IT-researcher… The IT researchers' worm uses infected computers to execute open large language models (LLMs). This allows it to maintain its decision-making capability and increase its reach for further attacks, the scientists explain. They exposed it in an isolated #network of #Linux, #Windows, and #IoT devices, and it spread within by exploiting common found in corporate networks. Since the #LLMs run on the hijacked computers, the attackers also incur no costs for #computing power – unlike the “defending side,” which tries to fend off such #attacks using AI, for example. #news #cybersecurity #security #hijack #hack #hacker #technology #research #science #proofofconcept #exploit #llm #vulnerability #attack #internet #online #problem #future #study #danger #defense

:boost_requested: Hey All - I know everything is terrible all at once, but I have a biggie for you to help us keep science not controlled by political state. Please help! https://www.science.org/content/article/white-house-seeks-tighten-political-oversight-grantmaking TLDR; Grants can be cancelled for any reason, at any time. Political appointees have a final say over what gets funded, and who gets funded. We would no longer allowed to use federal funding to publish, attend meetings, or talk to the public. We cannot collaborate internationally. This effectively kills all science and technology in the United States. Everything. Medical research, environment work, weather, you name it, it's over. ⚠️ TAKE ACTION! 40 days left to comment, can do it through stand up for science (I have not found the direct link yet, if someone else does please drop in comments, but this group is good and there is additional info on the page to help you write). https://fight2win.standupforscience.net/campaign/163675/ Comments need to be unique to be counted, so do not copy and paste something you see pre-written. Also contact your congressfolk / reps. You can use your same comment submitted to write them. #science #scientist #biology #chemistry #medicine #medical #research #geology #ecology #environment #health #action #directAction #policy #nature #technology

Query: What do you recommend for PDF reading that allows highlighting and annotation -- for a PC? Yes, I'm an old fogey and have relied on pen-and-ink until now. And yes, it's probably time to move digital. But no, the Adobe world is NOT an answer. And cloud-services are a no-go; I'm on rural internet Suggestions? #AcademicChatter #AmWriting #Research #Tools #PDFAnnotation

Alzheimerpatienten haben zu wenig Lithium im Gehirn, weil die Plaques es stehlen.

🌸 Do you enjoy cherry blossoms? We are looking for a future group member to explore the genetic mechanisms behind coloration in cherry flowers and fruits. The project focuses on tissue-specific gene expression and its role in ornamental plants and crops. 🔗 Details: https://www.izmb.uni-bonn.de/en/pbb/teaching#cherry #PlantScience #Genetics #Botany #AcademicJobs #Research @PuckerLab@genomic.social @samnm@mstdn.science

I’m glad to share my paper on publication activity and migration trends of Ukrainian SSH scholars during the first two years of the full-scale war. 👉 https://www.jscires.org/article/15/1/124 The key finding: the most productive researchers have largely remained in #Ukraine and many have maintained or even increased their publication activity, despite the challenges. #Science #OpenScience #Bibliometrics #HigherEducation #Scientometrics #Research #Academia

"For two decades, “social media” has been the master lens through which scholars have understood digital communication—an era defined by user-generated content, networked publics, and participatory culture. That era is drawing to a close." https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/6nue7_v1 #SocialMedia #research
