The Nutri-Score is more helpful in guiding healthier food choices in Indonesia, Mexico and Türkiye than health warning labels, our new #HPGVienna @univie.ac.at @unibayreuth.bsky.social study suggests. Yet, Nutri-Score may also lead to health halos that need more attention!

Be nice and submit an abstract to #SAA2026 - if not, Krampus might come get you next year 😇
Have you heard of Krampus? He's part of a beloved tradition from the host country of #SAA2026. In Austria, St. Nicholas has a scary companion, the Krampus, who appears in December’s lively Krampus Parades to scare off mischief. A unique part of Austrian winter culture! 🔗univie.eventsair.com/saa2026

Unfortunately, academia can be horrible in many ways, especially for women. Calling out senior academics for misconduct, no matter whether it's sexual harrasment, other maltreatment of junior colleagues or students, or scientific misconduct, takes a lot of courage and strength. We have to do better.
