Look folks: the US has completely ceased funding biomedical research. This is a catastrophe on so many levels: making new discoveries, supporting existing labs, training the next generation of scientists, US competitiveness... What are we doing? nature.com/articles/d4158…

Very interesting but long explanation of why the Gaza war has dragged on.. TL,DR: “Fearing for his own political survival, Netanyahu hitched his fate to the dreams of Israeli extremists and prolonged the war to sustain their support.” nytimes.com/2025/07/11/mag…
