Le Crédit Impôt Recherche coûte plus que le CNRS, le Cnes et l’Inserm réunis. Mais de plus, les entreprises privées qui le touchent se licencient à tour de bras (330 postes en R&D chez Sanofi en 2022) La recherche fondamentale ne peut pas être laissée dans les mains du marché !

Bon…. Voilà ti pas que la lithothérapie pénètre au lycée. Le progrès fait donc rage. J’en déduis que ce n’est plus la peine de se fatiguer à expliquer, de s’échiner à vulgariser, de s’époumonner à transmette. La bataille est perdue. Reste, peut-ètre, l’héroïsme.

ok this ad made me laugh out loud

Argentina’s ‘scienticide’ is like burning a library to save on electricity. After years of cultivating scientists through public education, austerity is forcing them out. This isn’t saving money, it’s torching the nation’s future. science.org/content/articl…
