Is this the first time a Nobel has been awarded for a hypothesis that was thoroughly discredited and subsequently rehabilitated? (even if they changed the name from Tsupp to Treg)
a fanatical Zionist asks Chomsky if he believes Iran having a nuclear program is an existential threat. Chomsky replies: No, the existential threats to the region and humanity are Israel and the US
Congratulations to all the new Starting Grant winners!
Empowering researchers early on in their careers - that’s one of the core tasks of @ERC_Research. Especially happy to welcome UK researchers back. They’ve been missed. This influx is good for the research community overall!
Still digesting the landmark #Draghireport, but great to see the emphasis on R&I. Very happy with proposal to double support to ground-breaking fundamental research via the European Research Council! And the stance on preserving the ERC's independence.

Here (from 10.12) is the MP for NW Cambs detailing the appalling state of the NHS left by the tories.Contrast that with his neighbour in NE Cambs who somehow managed to survive judgement day - as health secretary Barclay never had a clue let alone a plan. https://t.co/yWf5DDGjcr

Sam is a young man of enormous integrity and energy who has gone into politics for all the right reasons. NW Cambs will be lucky indeed if he is elected as their MP.
Age discrimination at Cambridge? New analysis shows no evidence that Cambridge University’s Employer Justified Retirement Age (EJRA) policy is working to achieve the aims that would legally justify it. https://t.co/lYdfnjS5DC
So many lovely chats in Littleport today, especially the ones that ended ‘I’m 10 out of 10 voting Labour!’ One lady who recently lost her husband told me, I’ve seen the state of the NHS, that’s why I’m voting Labour. Residents want the change a Labour government will bring!
I had forgotten that Oppenheimer was briefly a graduate student at Christ's College. He hated his time in Cambridge, and tried to poison his supervisor at the Cavendish Laboratory, the physicist PMS Blackett
