Steeds meer jonge mensen krijgen darmkanker, maar de oorzaak is onduidelijk. Nieuwe tests zouden kunnen helpen met opsporen, maar persoonlijk denk ik dat er vooral met leefstijl veranderingen winst te behalen valt.

AI-generated figures keep showing up in academic literature - even in high quality journals like ASME.org How to prevent this? Should we blame the technology? Or should we rather reflect on how the academic publishing and peer review system is designed?

We're thrilled to present you our latest special issue on the scientific reform movement! In response to the replication crisis and fraud cases in the behavioral and social sciences, a reform movement has arisen that pleads for a different culture and new practices... 1/2

Deze week was ik te gast bij de podcast Onbehaarde Apen van NRC, waar ik vertel over hoe kankertumoren hun omgeving kapen - en andere nieuwe ontwikkelingen in de biologie van uitzaaiingen. Luister het hier:

"Tumoren die uitzaaien zijn nauwelijks te genezen en zijn de belangrijkste doodsoorzaak van kankerpatiënten. Nieuw onderzoek laat zien dat tumoren hun omgeving naar hun hand zetten." Voor NRC Wetenschap mocht ik onderzoek doen naar hoe kanker uitzaait: nrc.nl/nieuws/2024/06…

Failure can be challenging when starting your PhD, but it's not the end of it, writes Shreya Pramanik in Science Magazine : "I developed critical thinking strategies and learned experimental techniques I never would have known about without the initial failed experiments."

Our board member Marcel Hobma paid a visit to the Museum of Failure, which recently opened an exhibit in Budapest! Why share this? Well, perhaps we are on the verge of announcing an exciting new project… Stay tuned!

In an early Covid publication, researchers found ‘uncanny similarities’ between HIV and corona, suggesting it may have been engineered. Why was the peer review system unable to prevent this unverified theory from slipping into the scientific literature? museumoffailure.com/exhibition/the…
