Goodbye to Dr Franklin Stahl. If you're a former student of mine you'll recognize the name from Messelson and Stahl experiments. These elegant, beautiful trials demonstrated the semi-conservative nature of DNA replication using heavy N and CsCl gradients

If you haven't critically evaluated this paper from the Ramazzini Institute, please do, and join this webinar. Especially if you are experts in statistics concerning rare events. They cound 1/50 incidence as signficant evidence, compared to zero in controls. It's an awful paper.
Find out from an expert on glyphosate research all about the new study confirming that #glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides cause multiple types of #cancer, even at exposure levels deemed to be “safe” by the EU. Register for the free webinar at:
