Researchers have identified a number of effector proteins, molecules secreted by fungal pathogens that can modulate and subvert plant immunity, that likely came from ancient antimicrobials and were repurposed by fungi during coevolution. scim.ag/4n25ARq

Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot. It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles. But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer. I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.

Last year a record 129 media workers were killed worldwide, 2/3 by Israel -- reflecting "a persistent culture of impunity for attacks on the press," the Committee to Protect Journalists, @pressfreedom, said. Israel killed 10 times as many journalists as Sudan, and 20 times as many as Russia.

"Khalil was trapped alive under rubble for hours, having made a phone call to her family and the Lebanese military for help, Qudah told CNN on Thursday. 'The Red Cross was blocked for seven hours and when they reached her after seven hours, she was already dead,” she said. 'This kind of obstruction of rescue efforts may really amount to war crime.'"

The number of grant applications is rising sharply. Our capacity for their evaluation isn’t. ERC President Maria Leptin explains why stricter resubmission limits are being introduced for 2027 calls and what this mean for applicants. link.europa.eu/xF7kjc

Announced by the ERC today (really bad news for science!!! It starts in Europe but will affect everybody) Because the REVIEWING LOAD is so bad, if your application fails you may need to wait mulitple years (>3?!?) until you can submit again! The ERC is the lifeline of the leading labs in Europe, so many research programs will be terminated (just no other sources to compensate). The letter from the ERC says “the only way is to reduce applications” (highlighted in the picture below) No!!! It's the wrong direction. Use AI to assist review. It’s not perfect (yet), but it allows more proposals to be evaluated, and it could support, not replace, human reviewers.

The New Yorker just lab-tested research peptides from a popular online vendor. BPC-157: contained lead. TB-500: contained endotoxins. CJC-1295: less than 42% of the labeled dose. This is what people are injecting into their bodies. The peptides aren't the problem. The supply chain is. This is exactly why the FDA reclassification matters moving these compounds into regulated compounding pharmacies with cGMP standards and real quality control.
