Jay no está siendo nada sincero. La ciencia sí se ha hecho la pregunta y ha respondido con miles de estudios: la vacuna triple vírica NO causa autismo. Resumido: miles de estudios revisados por pares descartan cualquier vínculo entre vacuna—autismo. Decir lo contrario es mentir
.@DrJBhattacharya: “Sec. Kennedy has asked me to initiate a study on the cause of the rise in autism. It's a question that is at the front of the minds of so many parents … yet scientific progress on this has been slow because scientists are frankly scared to ask the question.”

In today's episode of the Night Science Podcast we talk with Martin Schwartz from @Yale about the importance of stupidity in science: while learning science makes you feel smart, true scientific discovery often involves feeling stupid, because it means venturing into the unknown.
New Night Science Podcast episode! Martin Schwartz from @Yale talks with us about the importance of stupidity in scientific research, how the ego can obstruct creativity, and how resilience, self-discovery, and the cultivation of "passionate indifference" – are key in science.

Bueno, acabem de fer fora a 30 persones guiris: fotos, fotos, fotos, oh, beautiful... - És un tour, això? - Sí. - És que això no és un lloc turístic. - Ja, però com que és Sant Jordi. - Pues menos. ... i dos clients que miraven llibres tranquil·lament, ens han donat les gràcies.

Fascinating. Why it may be good to be conceived in the cold winter season. More brown fat (which is really good) as an adult. https://t.co/dbx5Z0QbVH

Nadie nos enseña a vaciar la casa de nuestros padres o abuelos. Ese álbum de fotos, la vajilla que sólo usaban en Navidad, el abrigo que aún huele a ellos. Enciclopedias tiradas al lado de un contenedor. No es solo ordenar: es despedirse. Y a veces, eso pesa más que una mudanza

ACTUALIZACIÓN – Una niña de 8 años no vacunada y sin problemas de salud conocidos ha fallecido por insuficiencia pulmonar causada por el sarampión en Texas. Es la tercera muerte registrada (todos sin vacunar). El negacionismo y la desinformación antivacunas siguen costando vidas

While studying two PWH who could not achieve undetectable #HIV viremia, we ran into a paradox: molecular evolution among...defective proviruses! A proviral mystery novel led the multitalented detective @HariharanViv. Hot off the press on @biorxivpreprint
2 people with HIV, perfect adherence to meds. Yet, for years, viral loads stayed detectable. We found something wild: defective viruses that couldn’t replicate on their own…but somehow, they were spreading A collab w/ the inimitable @SimonettiFR

Very sad to hear that UMass is rescinding all PhD admissions for Fall 2025. This means there will be no new PhD cohort, and UMass will not have a graduating class that year. This is just unprecedented and I am so very sorry for all the affected students.

Doing a PhD far from home isn’t just about research it’s about battling the silence, the grey days, and the constant push to stay motivated. Some days, it feels heavier than others. To everyone who's been through this or is going through it how do you keep yourself going?

Excited to share our #multiomics study of who was the world's #oldest living person! Our research on this record-breaking #supercentenarian suggests that, under certain conditions, #aging and #disease can become decoupled—challenging the common belief that they are inherently
