New Website Helps Researchers Overcome Peer Reviewers’ Preference for Animal Experiments
WASHINGTON, D.C.—A new website, AnimalMethodsBias.org, created by the Coalition to Illuminate and Address Animal Methods Bias (COLAAB), provides researchers guidance and resources aimed at helping them successfully publish nonanimal biomedical research by overcoming the preference some peer reviewers have for animal-based research methods.

"Tiling with Three Polygons is Undecidable"
Erik D. Demaine; Stefan Langerman 17 Sep 2024
Abstract
We prove that the following problem is co-RE-complete and thus undecidable: given three simple polygons, is there a tiling of the plane where every tile is an isometry of one of the three polygons (either allowing or forbidding reflections)? This result improves on the best previous construction which requires five polygons.
...
It remains open whether tiling …

Yeah, from what I've seen, this checks out. Brain fog is real & seems permanent.
COVID-19, even once, can be hugely detrimental & maybe unrecoverable.

Mounting research shows that COVID-19 leaves its mark on the brain, including significant drops in IQ scores
Two new high-profile studies add to the increasingly worrisome picture of how even mild cases of COVID-19 can have detrimental effects on brain health.

Global Methane Levels Show 'No Hint Of Decline' According To New Research
New research describes how human activities now fuel two-thirds of global methane emissions, which are growing at an unprecedented rate

Today I'll give a talk about our #datascience research on bicycle networks at #eurosdr ..with a lump in my throat due to the us news - Now more than ever, we need more research for the interests of *people*, not for states or corporations.
