Hey, mito Twitter community (whoever is left here). Can you please help me amplify this message? Postdoc position available in Düsseldorf!

I caught myself rewriting my student's entire introduction last year.

Again.

For the third time that month.

That's when it hit me:
The skills that made me productive are now making me a bottleneck.

Here's the mid-career trap nobody warns you about:

Non-GMO Salt.
Utter nonsense.

The idea of "non-GMO salt" is fundamentally flawed and reveals a misunderstanding of what GMOs (genetically modified organisms) actually are.

To clarify, GMOs refer to living organisms - plants, animals, or microbes - whose genetic material has been intentionally modified.

Salt, however, is not an organism. It’s an inorganic compound, primarily sodium chloride (NaCl), with no DNA or genetic material to modify.

For something to be genetically modified, it must have genes. This is why GMO applies to living things like crops or bacteria, but not to non-living, inorganic substances like salt.

Labeling salt as "non-GMO" is scientifically meaningless. It’s a marketing gimmick designed to exploit consumer fears about GMOs, even though GMOs have no relevance to a substance like salt.

These labels don’t inform—they mislead, creating unnecessary confusion and fostering misconceptions about basic science. Far from protecting consumers, they undermine scientific literacy and fuel mistrust in legitimate food labeling practices.

Why is MS Edge showing an icon of a gray sheet of paper, just... Is this the new @MSEdgeDev style?

[Simon Maechling @simonmaechling]

Organic isn’t safer, healthier, or better.
It's just a marketing myth born of chemophobia.

The shortest amount of time it's taken a country to join the EU, is 3 years!

We can beat that record. We just have to apply first to get the ball rolling.

The politicians need YOU to TELL them to apply! So sign the petition...

Today, 35 years ago on 9 November 1989, the Berlin Wall fell—a pivotal event without which I and millions of others would not have had the chance to freely pursue their life goals. A timely reminder that freedom should never be taken for granted.

[Amanda Smythers, PhD @AmandaLSmythers]

Reminder that science is political whether you like it or not.

Politics define how we are funded and what we are funded for. Politics define what we are able to study. Politics define who will be allowed in our labs and workplaces. Politics define with whom we can collaborate.
