En octobre 2025, @univ-amu.fr continue de laisser un de ses professeurs harceler des médecins et scientifiques quasi quotidiennement, dans la plus grande impunité. C'est vraiment et définitivement l'université de la honte francaise.

"Sweeteners can harm cognitive health equivalent to 1.6 years of ageing, study finds"

Or does it? Let's take a look at this "study"...

Lonni Besançon, Assistant Professor at Linköping University, took a stand against flawed COVID-19 research during the pandemic. His data-driven investigations revealed serious issues in fast-tracked publications — including a now-retracted hydroxychloroquine study, writes @nature.com.

The COVID-19 pandemic transformed this scientist into a research-integrity sleuth

Lonni Besançon has faced online abuse, threats and legal challenges. But he remains proud of his service to science and society.
