My paper on stochastic thermodynamics of replicators is out at J Chem Phys. It shows that fundamental thermodynamic bounds, like the one by J. England, do not constraint replicator kinetics pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…

Several research institutes in Germany are joining a worldwide grassroots effort to save science data sets that researchers fear could be deleted by US President Donald Trump’s administration, Nature has learnt. go.nature.com/4iueeEJ

Congratulations to ⁦Ann Telnaes⁩ who resigned from the ⁦The Washington Post⁩ when this political cartoon of tech executives groveling at the feet of ⁦Donald J. Trump⁩ was rejected by the paper. Yesterday it was announced she won a Pulitzer Prize.

Trump's Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, sent this letter to Harvard. As you can see, the grammar, punctuation and spelling are horrific. Is this really who we want to decide what’s best for our children’s education?

How can physics contribute to understanding the evolution of complexity? Although great results have been produced over the last decades, some recent "theories" appear to ignore evolutionary theory and are seriously flawed. Check this paper in PNAS pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...

Carl Sagan was prescient.

When my husband died, because he was so famous and known for not being a believer, many people would come up to me-it still sometimes happens-and ask me if Carl changed at the end and converted to a belief in an afterlife. They also frequently ask me if I think I will see him

If you haven't done so already -- read, then read again, and share widely:
