I am also a longtime member of the Council of Science Editors & the American Medical Writers Association. I call on those groups too to stand up for #scientific #integrity. Fellow members, if you agree, please urge them to speak up.

"No new #sites of #special #scientific #interest (SSSIs) have been designated by #NaturalEngland since 2023. SSSIs are nationally or internationally important places for rare #wildlife & #habitats.

Huh, I'm curious what effect this knowledge might have (if any) on #transgender persons and their existence:
https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1122852?user_id=688df53416db12a71511c696
Does it mean that we might soon find whatever "causes" transgenderism in the DNA and be able to filter it out of the population over time using #eugenics?
This is a moral dilemma, and top of my mind right now as I'm #actuallyautistic that they might consider something similar if they can find an "autistic letter".
Is it moral to prevent someone from being born the sex that they don't "feel" before they have a chance to feel that way?
Is it moral to "fix" people from having #autism?
This also isn't just a moral question, but also a #scientific one and practical one, because if you can code "out" undesirable traits, that could lean to population "gene shallowing". Anyone remember what happened to the #GrosMichel #banana? And what might be starting to happen with the #Cavendish banana if the #Panamadisease continues to spread?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panama_disease
If we started gene or even DNA editing en masse, we could be writing #humanity an early grave.
It's something to consider and #discuss, I think.

Testing Fountain Pen Inks
Question: has anyone done extensive testing on any fountain pen inks?
I don’t mean the standard Mountain of Ink style, sample card, writing sample, etc. visual comparisons. (I’d like to call this subjective measurement, but chromatographic measurements aren’t subjective if done in a controlled manner.)
I am thinking more objective testing: viscosity, density, flow rate @ a given line width, etc.
I was thinking about this type of testing tonight, and it seems to me that there are a lot of factors that would need to be controlled: temperature, air pressure / barometric pressure, nib consistency, friction (aka heat), etc. Given what I was thinking this could be an interesting experiment, if someone wanted to undertake controlling all the variables, and implementing the controls necessary for consistent results.

[older papers, but good guidance; we had all this in our university training, (hopefully) to good effect, but some reminders for us all, myself included!]
“Many young researchers find it extremely difficult to write scientific articles, and few receive specific training in the art of presenting their research work in written format. Yet, publication is often vital for career advancement, to obtain funding, to obtain academic qualifications, or for all these reasons. [They] describe here the basic steps to follow in writing a scientific article..."

RE: https://mastodon.social/@sflorg/115967607765332592
A very impressive #scientific paper by W. Binder et al. (2026) shows that #cougars and #wolves in #Yellowstone National Park #influence each other's life #strategies. It's about #apex- apex #carnivore dynamics and #kleptoparasitism. The risk of wolves stealing pumas' prey has led pumas to #specialize in #smallanimals that can be caught quickly, thus reducing the likelihood of encountering wolves.

RE: https://mastodon.green/@plazi_species/115865079842879526
It is a complex #scientific #study in which C. J. Glasby et al. (2025) deal with the #Marphysa #mossambica #speciesgroup (#Polychaeta: #Eunicidae). Species complexes always indicate very closely related and #similar #species and #taxonomic uncertainty about where species boundaries have been crossed and where they have not. The authors redescribed the species Marphysa mossambica and described two #newspecies.
