.@US_FDA has more evidence pasteurization kills #H5N1 #birdflu virus in milk, saying it was unable to grow virus from some PCR-positive samples. Doesn't say how many samples it's tried yet, though. Testing infant formula did not show evidence of H5. fda.gov/food/alerts-ad…

New WHO study reports that in the last 50 years, 14 vaccines have saved an estimated 154 million lives globally. 101 million of those lives are infants. "..more children now survive and thrive past their fifth birthday than at any other point in history." who.int/news/item/24-0…
Not a great headline choice at all, because there is a significant difference between detecting an intact virus and detecting genomic fragments of the virus. The article does clarify this tho, and also notes that pasteurization should kill most pathogens. washingtonpost.com/health/2024/04…
Final FY24 budget for US research is a disaster. Budgets of federal agencies are mostly or cut down NIH $47.08B flat NSF $9.06B (-5%) NASA Sci. $7.33B (-6%) CDC $9.2B flat DOE Sci. $8.24B (+1.7%) ARPA-E 0.46B (-2%) DOD Sci. $2.6B (-9%) DARPA $4.1B flat Global Health $10B (-5%)

To some, abortion due to rape may seem like a rare circumstance. Sadly, it is not. A study earlier this year estimated that in the 14 states with total abortion bans 64,565 rape-related pregnancies occurred in 519,981 victims over a 4-18 month period. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…

Just before it got cloudy at the peak. Now the combo of clouds and eclipse reminds me of the weird light that filtered through all the wildfire smoke last summer.
Are you a science editor? If so, we'd love to have you participate in this survey-based study on the profession. Here is the official announcement with more info, and a link to the survey: urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https…
I think I just experienced an earthquake in New York...
1) I am not surprised. I hope the person gets better soon (there are many treatment options for influenza). I think it would be really important to know how widespread H5N1 in cattle is by now and how much cow to cow transmission there is.

Sometimes your research background is useful in unexpected ways. Like helping your spouse solve the pangram in the daily Spelling Bee challenge.
Summary statements will be an overall impact paragraph (like now); there will be subheadings for Factors 1 - 3. They will include clarifying reviewer comments under Factor 3 only if gaps related to the proposed research were identified. For more info: go.nih.gov/SRF
Mere days after paper released saying tweets do NOT increase citations, new preprint comes out saying tweets DO increase citations. …pysportsmedicineandrehabilitation.org/article/S2666-… The two tackle the question in different ways. I think the “do not” case is stronger than the “does too” case.
It's the perfect time for this walk down memory lane: 1998 when the @UtahMBB team exceeded all expectations and plowed through the bracket to the finals vs. Kentucky.

This is a clever ecology project: Anyone anywhere can view an underwater camera from a canal system in Germany. If you see a fish, ring the doorbell, and someone there will open a boat lock so the fish can pass through and migrate during breeding season. visdeurbel.nl/en/the-fish-do…
