Just re-upping this new target article I co-authored w/ the incredible @elangmann.bsky.social It integrates insights from 3 fields that generally aren't working together much: aging studies, disability studies, & #bioethics in context of #EpistemicJustice

Let us know if you'd like a PDF!

This article brings together questions that have been central to my work for some time: how ageism and ableism intersect, and how epistemic injustice helps make visible what is excluded or devalued in bioethics and public health. I’d be happy to hear your thoughts.

As my research residency at Fondation Brocher comes to an end, I am very thankful for weeks filled with sunshine, lake views, long walks, and great conversations. I worked on marginalisation and public health in a rhythm of thinking, writing, shared meals, and pétanque after lunch.

How Trump 2.0 is slashing NIH-backed research — in charts Nature analyses which fields of science and US states are being hit hardest by grant terminations.

NEW: Entire scientific fields have been wiped out by the nearly 800 grants cancelled at NIH, finds a @nature.com analysis of the unprecedented cuts.

Österreichische Neonazis lockten Schwule für brutale Übergriffe in Falle Bei Razzien in sieben Bundesländern gab es 15 Festnahmen. Die homosexuellen Opfer sollen zum Teil mit Mord bedroht worden sein. Es dürfte sich um harten Neonazismus handeln

A group of Neonazis in 🇦🇹 created fake social media accounts to lure homosexual men to "dates" where they then attacked, robbed, and seriously injured them—one case possibly handled as attempted murder. They humiliated survivors, filmed it, and uploaded it to private chat groups. 15 arrests so far.
