Having a lovely time at university of Lund at their great Spring meeting. This poster was outside the hall. Those old English universities, they’re all the same aren’t they?! ⁦Inst Metabolic Science-Metabolic Research Labs

Federal grants to Harvard are not support of the university -- they pay for specific research projects that benefit the country. Just one example: We know exercise is good for you. Why? He‘s working on it.   — news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/…

Mice lacking this amino acid lost 30% of their body weight nature.com/articles/d4158…. Am I missing something? Mice who are made sick by engineering them to have a profound specific defect in amino acid metabolism lose weight? Like a lot of sick animals do?

For those who think that “cancel culture” is a myth. This happened to a Professor of Sociology at UCL (one of the world’s top universities) whose commissioned report on the importance of reporting data on sex was recently published by the UK Labour govt

Last summer, a lot of sportswriters defended a male pummelling women boxers at the Olympics, and they gaslit those of us who objected to this sadistic scandal. A lot of sportswriters failed the most simple of moral tests. Oliver Brown is one of the few who did not.

The power advantage of males derives largely from the three surges in androgens that males are exposed to during their development. Before birth, in the neonatal period and during puberty. Male power advantage is well established by early puberty or even before. PulseToday

Why is there such a generational divide in views on sex and gender in Britain? | Susanna Rustin. Oh my word! Has this really appeared in the Guardian? Evidence that sanity is finally breaking through ? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I expect the misleading headline and first para of this article to be urgently corrected. Trans people's rights haven't been reduced and I didn't at any time say that they had. I said that trans people have been lied to about what their rights are. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

We welcome Hugh Linehan's piece in the The Irish Times—Irish media's silence on gender issues desperately needs addressing. But characterising Stella O'Malley as 'an activist with a clear ideological stance' demonstrates exactly how legitimate concerns get dismissed. Genspect has no

So shocking to see the USA killing the goose which has laid so many of its golden eggs. NIH supported research and the trainees funded by it have done so much to fuel American dominance in pharma/biotech

So sad to see Ireland being captured by this ideology. Surely some of the Irish political class are aware of what’s happening in the UK and elsewhere with the realisation of the adverse impact on the health and safety of children and women caused by blindly following this dogma

Wonderful piece by distinguished author John Boyne. Such a pity that an article like this would never appear in the The Irish Times Nor indeed would his viewpoint, (shared by several gay people I know) ever be aired on RTÉ.

sciencedirect.com/science/articl… If this proves robust and reproducible across labs (though will be difficult to do because of expense) then it is a remarkable set of findings. I wonder if my geronto-science friends think it will?
