# The Risk of Gerrymandering
The outcome of Hungary’s parliamentary election illustrates how gerrymandering can backfire.
The razor-thin margins engineered by Orbán to win the maximum number of constituencies have now secured Péter Magyar’s Tisza a two-thirds supermajority in parliament.

Is this coincidence?
DFG announces the winners of Germany‘s toughest science competition (> €500 million/year for 7 years), and the US Administration bans international students from Harvard University.
Science is an effort of humankind that thrives through cooperation across borders.
Congratulations, Andreas and the whole CMFI-team!
Congratulations!!
Es wird dunkel in den USA. Sehr dunkel. Jetzt kommt es auf uns an und unsere wachsende Veranwortung für die freien Wissenschaften und die Lehre.

Receiving a COVID-19 booster vaccine in the same arm as the first vaccine dose leads to a faster, more effective immune response than having it in the opposite arm.

Great work! Congrats, Yang Li and team.
Yang Li and her team unveil an AI-powered "Single-Cell Immune Aging Clock" that maps aging in immune cells. Using data from 2M+ cells, the study shows how infections can speed up aging - yet recovery may reset the clock. #Science #AI #HealthyAging www.ciim-hannover.de/en/news/news...

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.
We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.
Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.
Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.
Solidarität mit der Ukraine steht. Jetzt muss Europa die Mittel bekommen, die es wirklich braucht. Kein Zögern mehr.

Der Mut und die Höflichkeit von Selenskyj wird auf ewig Inspiration für mich sein:
