Economic growth should not be the sole focus of European policy. In a paper, researchers, including well-being economist @Rutger_Hoekstra suggest how the next European Commission can develop an alternative policy model that centres people’s well-being.

De aangekondigde bezuinigingen op de wetenschap hebben forse impact op ons onderzoek. Zonder ons onderzoek geen voortgang in AI, quantum, duurzaamheid, biodiversiteit en de ontdekking van geneesmiddelen. Dat mogen we niet laten gebeuren. @universiteitenvanned #hoofdlijnenakkoord

From everything I've seen we really don't need to worry much about the health impacts of plant-based ultra-processed foods (UPFs).

Some of the reporting on them last week was very poor. Here is a good reaction from scientists: https://t.co/H7ymVSVa7n

Some bacteria have proteins much like ours that organise their DNA. Biochemists from @DameLab & the @MPI_Bio reveal this in a new paper. Their work helps us better understand evolution & how bacteria organise their DNA. Read: https://t.co/R0SYshku5y

Nanoplastics can accumulate in developing hearts, according to a study by biologist Meiru Wang from Leiden University. Read how her research on chicken embryos sheds new light on how these tiny plastic particles pose a threat to our health: https://t.co/nsi86Pjxss

By chance, computer scientist Hans-Dieter Hiep (Leiden University and @CWInl) discovered a ‘gaping hole’ in a widely used method for evaluating software security. He patched it (that was no easy task) and graduated cum laude on 23 May.

The vast majority of the EU's agricultural subsidies go to livestock farming & producing animal feed. This is even though livestock & their food generate significant greenhouse gas emissions. Leiden environmental scientists reveal this in @NatureFoodJnl

Keep the roar on the savannah! 🦁
Biologist @LauraDBertola took these beautiful pics during her fieldwork in Kenya. By genetic analysis of 171 lion samples, researchers shine a light on the genetic diversity of these lions & how to preserve it. @KWSKenya
