"Long-term cooking duos on television are rare (where is the successor to Two Fat Ladies?) and perhaps particularly rare is a man and a woman making a meal together without marriage or romantic attachment between them. Child was the most Frenchified American at the time, Pépin the most enthusiastically Americanized Frenchman. “We argued on stage, stealing each other’s mise en place,” he wrote in 2012 in The New York Times."

'Un equipo internacional, en el que participa la neurocientífica española Amaia Arranz, ha introducido 100.000 neuronas humanas en el cerebro de ratones para intentar investigar en vivo qué ocurre durante el alzhéimer. Los autores han observado cómo perecen las células y han logrado evitar esta muerte neuronal con un simple tratamiento oral. Su avance se publica este jueves en la revista Science'

'I think many troubling aspects of US history are often neglected in the public consciousness. They include the four-day New York City draft riot in 1863, in which white rioters attacked African American workers and their properties; the race riots in Chicago, Illinois, in 1919; and the massacre in Tulsa, Oklahoma, two years later. These are just three examples of events, often catalysed by police inaction, that resulted in the loss of Black lives, livelihoods and homes.'
@PlantTeaching From this piece it sounds like they have a profitable line in loansharking!

"While #malaria infection is still prevalent south of the Sahara and in parts of Oceania, such as Papua New Guinea, prior to the 1880s the disease was also endemic in areas that have no longer sustained transmission, including the United States."

'These results illuminate an FcγRIIB-mediated, cell-autonomous mechanism of CD8+ T cell suppression, which limits the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors during antitumor immune responses in vivo.'

'Researchers who signed up in the past year or so tell Science they committed between $3000 and $6000—plus interest payments on any loans Cheeky Scientist helped them apply for. Hankel declined to comment on the number of people enrolled in the Diamond Program, the company’s pricing strategies, or the program’s content.'

'Saura y su equipo sabían que el tumor no se transmite a través de la lactancia, pero a partir de la inquietud de esa paciente, se les “encendió una bombilla”, explica la oncóloga: quizás en esa muestra de leche había ya señales del cáncer que ayudasen a la investigación.'

With autumn and the virus season approaching, viral levels will go up. We see this in wastewater analysis such as this in the Netherlands. More virus is not great but also does not predict severe disease and hospitalisations, immunity will prevent that.

Deeply troubled to be going in to an emergency HEC to take decisions on behalf of branches and industrial action, without input from a branch delegate meeting in advance of it. Also incredibly troubled that this HEC can be called with less than 24 hours notice, but trying to put one together to implement congress policy on a summer reballot had to take so many weeks that the gap in mandate became inevitable.

"The participants in the group that were given MDMA experienced significantly greater reductions in their PTSD symptoms compared with those in the group that were given a placebo, according to the research article."
