Acabamos de conocer los resultados del nuevo índice de calidad democrática de The Economist. España mejora aún más su puntuación respecto al año anterior y se consolida como una de las democracias más plenas del mundo. Lo mismo que ha ocurrido en las actualizaciones de los rankings de V-DEM y Freedom House. Frente al ruido de unos, los datos de la ciencia. Y frente a la inestabilidad del mundo, una España cada día mejor. economist.com/interactive/de…

Los alumnos no buscan aprender. Buscan aprobar. Y hacen bien. Porque hemos montado un sistema donde memorizar el ciclo de Krebs vale más que saber pensar. Donde copiar apuntes cuenta más que cuestionar ideas. Les hemos enseñado que el conocimiento caduca el día del examen. Que da igual entender si puedes vomitar datos. Que la nota es el objetivo y aprender es el camino prescindible. Mientras sigamos evaluando memoria en lugar de pensamiento, seguiremos graduando gente que sólo sabe pasar exámenes.

📌 Takeaway: The inverse Magnus effect is a microstructural phenomenon driven by polymer transport, not classical viscoelasticity. This mechanism will matter for microrheology, active colloids, and micro‑robotics. Link to our paper: cell.com/newton/fulltex…

We derived a simple analytical expression for the migration velocity and — without any fitting parameter — it matches experiments beautifully.

🚀 New paper out! Experiments by Xin Cao and coworkers (doi.org/10.1038/s415...) showed something surprising: a micron‑scale particle spinning in a polymer solution drifts sideways — an inverse Magnus effect — even though inertia is negligible. We set out to explain why.

Sharing a PhD advert on behalf of a colleague from the institute. This is a super cool project on the interactions between cells and bacteria.

"I still remember the first morning I biked to university in Copenhagen, the February air reddening my cheeks. I was thrilled to be on an exchange semester overseas, but I saw it as just a detour from my imagined career path. I didn’t realize I was already pedaling toward a different life—one that would make me reassess how to achieve a fulfilling research career."
