Women Scientists: past, present and future

The number of women that enroll in science, maths, engineering or technology as undergraduates is quite low. Even in some informatics modules there are no women or there are few of them [1]. Why do we observe this trend? Actually, it is quite difficult to find a specific answer. One of the possible reasons for Women Scientists: past, present and future

Communicating science online

What is the best way to communicate science? This seems to be a matter of debate. In some science communication conferences, I have heard people saying that the best science communication is in person and in small groups, since contact with the public is much more direct and it’s easier to see whether people are Communicating science online

Marine toxins: a hidden danger in the seafood

Do you like seafood? Do you enjoy eating mussels, scallops, crabs, or lobsters? If so, have you ever wondered why sometimes there are so many food poisonings related to this kind of food?

Watch out, a wild atom appeared! Understanding what we can’t see

“The industrial revolution […] allowed the construction of machines. The nanotechnology revolution is practically invisible. That is why people are still not aware of the achievements that can be achieved” Daniel Lupi No, I wasn’t playing any video games when I was preparing this post.

Uneasy Relationships: the UK, the European Union and Criminal Law

It may come as a surprise to find a legal post on a science blog. Even within the field of social sciences, Law is usually considered a domain of politicians and legislators who do and undo according to their ideological positions. Although this may be partially true, social scientists –economists, political scientists, criminologists– and lawyers Uneasy Relationships: the UK, the European Union and Criminal Law

How language influences temporal thinking

How is time tracked during development?

In all types of animals, from fruit flies to mice to elephants, cells follow a fairly similar set of steps to grow from embryo to adult. While these steps follow the same order and often involve the same sets of genes and molecular signals, they progress at different rates from one species to another, in How is time tracked during development?

Uncovering the clock that sets the speed of embryo development

London 18th September 2020. Why do pregnancies last longer in some species than others? Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have found the clock that sets the speed of embryonic development and discovered the mechanism is based on how proteins are made and dismantled. The study, published in Science,  could also help us understand how Uncovering the clock that sets the speed of embryo development
