Studie zu digitaler Gewalt Hass im Netz ist ein großes Problem. Opfer sind laut einer Studie der TU München oft Menschen, die sich politisch engagieren.

Problematisch: Wer sich online politisch äußert, muss mit digitaler Gewalt rechnen. Die Täter sind oft anonym.
Gefährlich: Politisch Engagierte schränken ihre Aktivität ein, oder ziehen sich ganz zurück.

Spatial multiomic landscape of the human placenta at molecular resolution - Nature Medicine The spatial single-cell multiomic atlas of the first trimester human placenta at molecular resolution provides a blueprint for future studies on early placental development and pregnancy.

Excited to share a project I started working on during my PhD at the Medical University of Vienna: a spatially resolved single-cell multi-omic census of the placenta, contributing to the #HumanCellAtlas.
