‘Climate villain’: scientists say Rupert Murdoch wielded his media empire to sow confusion and doubt
"Scientists have described the media tycoon Rupert Murdoch as a “climate villain” who has used his television and newspaper empire to promote climate science denial and delay action.
"Murdoch’s outlets, including Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and The Australian, have long been known to promote doubts about the cause and consequences of the climate crisis. Scientists said this had caused lasting damage."

Amazing interview with Nobel winner Katalin Karikó
aargauerzeitung.ch/leben/inter…
"If you publish papers – more is better - it can help you get a promotion, more grants, a larger team. However, if another scientist scoops you by publishing something similar like what you were working on, you feel devastated. If your goal is purely scientific, you will not be upset, instead rather happy that there is more data and maybe you will even get validation for your theory"
Katalin Karikó: «Women should have a career and a happy family»
Scientist Katalin Karikó’s work didn’t get the attention it deserved until the start of the pandemic in 2020, when suddenly her area of expertise, mRNA, became the most important subject of research worldwide.Simon Maurer (smr) (Aargauer Zeitung)

The crucial 2005 paper by Karikó and Weissman that demonstrated how mRNA modifications reduce the recognition by Toll-like receptors, paving the path for mRNA vaccines.
Like Nobel prize-winning research before, the paper was rejected by Nature, Cell, and Science.
Very pleased to see NYT acknowledge Lise Meitner.
Meitner developed the theory of nuclear fission & newly translated letters show she was barred from sharing credit for the Nobel Prize-winning discovery because she was Jewish & a woman. nytimes.com/2023/10/02/science… #science #history #HistoryRemix
