Screenshot of a tweet by Rep. Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) praising a breakthrough in pancreatic cancer research, calling it "the best of America" and noting that lead researcher Dr. Balachandran is the son of Indian immigrants and works at Sloan Kettering. He quote-tweets Ian Weissman, DO (@DrIanWeiss...), who reports that an mRNA pancreatic cancer vaccine showed lasting results in an early trial, with nearly all responding patients still alive six years later.

Science leads to amazing breakthroughs. Immigrants lead to amazing science.

Physicists resolve a long-standing puzzle over the size of a proton Two extremely precise experiments agree with a previously shocking measurement of just how big the proton is, which may help future searches for new particles

Rockstar hackers release their stolen data, reveal that Rockstar was right to not pay them anything for it It's interesting, but... is that it?

STL: Heroes, Cowards, and Science Fiction - Inkican What is cowardice? Would you recognize a coward if you saw one? What's the difference between a hero and a coward, between cowardice and heroism? Does our modern science fiction unlock our inner heroes or is it enabling our cowardice? I wrestled with those questions over the three-day weekend. Now I'm jotting down some notes

People say they're tired of fear mongering and not enough positive news.

Here's a way forward

New Draft2Digital fees - 10% of our sales wasn't enough?
