It's going to take more than early dark energy to resolve the #Hubble tension.
Our best understanding of the #universe is rooted in a cosmological model known as #LCDM — the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model.
Although the LCDM model matches our observations incredibly well, it isn't perfect. And the more data we gather on the early universe, the less perfect it seems to be.

The real reason the #UK prime minister is not going to the UN summit: António Guterres would shame him for his support of #FossilFuels.
"Sunak would risk falling foul of the UN secretary-general’s strict stipulations if he were to attempt to participate in the #climate segment. The potential embarrassment he faced throws a new light on his decision not to attend the UN general assembly."

There must be a reason why the UK 'Health Security' Agency removed public health from its name.
No recognition that we are still in a pandemic with an airborne virus, risks of long covid and & that UK kids are not being offered the vax, #CleanAir or #ventilation.
But yes, keep recommending hand washing

"(...) Xerox PARC, the storied Palo Alto research lab credited with pioneering many aspects of contemporary computing. Its most famous creation is the Alto, a personal computer system introduced in 1973 that featured a mouse and a graphical user interface with icons, windows, and folders. Xerox famously never managed to monetize it, but the Alto’s influence was immense; within a decade Apple was selling machines that looked a lot like it."

'Treatment of chronically infected mice with either αPD-1 or αPD-L1 antibody not only increased effector cell differentiation from the virus-specific stem-like CD8 T cells but also increased their proliferation so their numbers were maintained'

Discours sur le bonheur
Gabrielle-Émilie Le Tonnelier de Breteuil, marquise du Châtelet died #OTD in 1749. Her most recognized achievement is her translation of and commentary on Isaac Newton's book Principia Mathematica containing basic laws of physics. Her philosophical magnum opus, Institutions de Physique was republished & translated into several other languages.
"These findings indicate a discrepancy in the approval policies between the FDA and EMA and imply either that some patient groups in the USA do not get access to relevant medical treatment, or that some patient groups in the EU are treated with medicine without a positive benefit–risk balance."

"It is time to effect a revolution in female manners - time to restore to them their lost dignity. It is time to separate unchangeable morals from local manners."
Vindication of the rights of woman
Mary Wollstonecraft died #OTD in 1797. She is best known for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), considered a classic of feminism, in which she argues that women are not naturally inferior to men but appear to be only because they lack education.
'It makes sense that Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump are effectively in alliance, and that Trump as president contemplated appointing Kennedy to head a putative “vaccine safety and scientific integrity commission.”

'Cooke had always admired Bob Dylan’s civil rights song “Blowin’ in the Wind”. He pulled it straight into his own live repertoire, but still, as biographer Daniel Wolff wrote, something troubled him: “Geez, a white boy writing a song like that?” A 2005 biographer, Peter Guralnick, said that Cooke was “almost ashamed not to have written something like that himself”.

One in every four Europeans is currently in a "precarious" financial situation because of rising inflation figures, a new survey has found.
The study found that difficult financial constraints fueled by inflation have made Europeans cut off meals and consider themselves in a "precarious" condition.

🔬First Mastodon post alert!☺️
Hey there, I'm Delnia, and I've just embarked on my PhD journey in Cellular and Structural Biology at IGBMC, University of Strasbourg.🧬
I'll be focusing on unraveling the (ultra)structural mysteries of Golgi organization under the expert guidance of Florian Fabler. 🧪🔍
A repost would be fantastic as I'm building my network here on Mastodon.
Let's connect and explore the world of science together!
