That's relevant and cool, dear #bookhistory experts and #histodons: "The contaminated library" is out.

"The prejudice of the microbe as the enemy of the collection is questioned. Instead, the microbe is brought to the fore and made contextually visible as a book-biographical sign: traces on the book, including microbial ones, can bear witness to fire, flood, evacuation, and historical epidemics." Congratulations to the editors and authors!

'Beyond its potential to enhance surgical resectability of the primary tumor, neoadjuvant immunotherapy further seeks to utilize the primary tumor as a source of antigens recognized by the immune system, inducing or enhancing systemic anti-tumor immunity to target and eliminate distant micrometastases that would otherwise become the nidus of post-surgical relapse'

Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis died #OTD in 1843.

He is best known for his work on the supplementary forces that are detected in a rotating frame of reference, leading to the Coriolis effect. He was the first to apply the term travail (translated as "work") for the transfer of energy by a force acting through a distance, and he prefixed the factor ½ to Leibniz's concept of vis viva, thus specifying today's kinetic energy. via @wikipedia
