Here’s the key point: science almost never “rules out” every imaginable possibility. That’s not how the scientific method operates. You can’t prove a universal negative with absolute certainty, and scientists don’t pretend they can.

A new method uses high-resolution MRI to provide a noninvasive, granular view of cerebrospinal-fluid movement—even in the small spaces that surround blood vessels, which have not been studied before.

A 34 ans, il devient le plus jeune maire de la ville, le premier musulman et le premier à se revendiquer socialiste. Son élection consacre surtout sa ligne politique, centrée sur le coût de la vie et la taxation des plus riches, et résolument opposée à Donald Trump.

Several scientists have received letters from the NIH director disinviting them from their positions on advisory councils that make final decisions on grant funding, I'm told.
In July, I reported that NIH staff were told to select members aligned with Trump administration priorities.

We've been seeing how RFK Jr & anti-vax lobby has been steadily and effectively reducing access to vaccines in the US.
But it could happen in UK too.
It's a threat worth considering given Malhotra's speech at Reform conf & big overlap between anti-vax and RW populsim.
