"I am really very proud and very happy to use this little language. I thank, first of all, the readers. I wish for everybody to get back the ability to use their fantasy, because without fantasy it’s an absolute different life."
Nobel Prize in Literature 2025
The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2025 was awarded to László Krasznahorkai, “for his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art.”

Just out in @science.org: Together with the lab of @wilhelmpalm.bsky.social, we used sequential in-vitro/in-vivo CRISPR screens to decipher metabolic adaptations in tumors. We find that acidosis is a dominant factor that shapes energy metabolism and stress resilience. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

A coligação Viver Lisboa começa esta viagem com um compromisso: devolver cuidado, escuta e futuro à cidade.

Em quatro anos de mandato, Carlos Moedas desleixou a cidade. Não ouviu, não participou, não respondeu. Mas Lisboa merece mais.

'In public health, as in science more broadly, decisions are made by regularly assessing all of the available evidence, taking into account the quality of studies, and not just by citing those statements that support one view over others.'
