This is worrying.
After publishing alarming results on the carcinogenic effects of #glyphosate, the senior researcher of the study seems to be removed from his position as research director at his Italian institute. The whole process seems to be very nontransparent.
Daniele Mandriolini had been the target of “an incredible amount of attacks” since the publication of his article.
What is going on here?

A leading European chemical safety institute has fired the director of its cancer research center after the director launched an extensive testing program into the safety of the pesticide glyphosate, sparking concerns about chemical industry influence into what has been an independent research institution.
Often research are led with public money, and the results put behind paywalls by “publishers” whose role seems today more and more anachronistic.

Wenn jemand wissen will, wie welche wissenschaftlichen Daten in den USA gerade manipuliert oder unterdrückt werden: der Silencing Science Tracker erfasst es.
"The Silencing Science Tracker is a joint initiative of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law and the Climate Science Legal Defense Fund. It tracks government attempts to restrict or prohibit scientific research, education or discussion, or the publication or use of scientific information, since the November 2016 election."

You know the drama maybe with sci-hub, z-lib, libgen, etc...check out the weird-ass seizure notice with a (IMO) absolute failure in messaging...they don't seem to be swimming in pools of stolen money, rather, looks like they just live in a rural area...but ok.
Just in case you didn't know, there's a meta-search site called annas archive annas-archive.org (with shitty-but-working download mirrors)
and z-library.sk is the current official domain.
and sci-hub seems to be back up and running (multiple domains e.g. sci-hub.se)
Just stop putting your research behind paywalls

gibt es ein beispiel, wo das mit der unabhängigkeit trotz sponsoring wirklich keine rolle spielt? sobald da arbeitsplätze dran hängen kann ich mir das schwer vorstellen...

La veritat és que m’estic acostumant força a utilitzar @logseq per al dia a dia del meu laboratori…
