🎉 Today, EASAC celebrates 25 years of science for policy advice!
Since its founding in 2001, EASAC’s mission has always been to unite Europe’s brightest minds to serve the public good.
”That mission is now more vital than ever,” says Lise Øvreås, President of EASAC.

🔬🧬 Meet science up close at the Science Fair 2026 in Prague! Visit the CCP booth (no.5, hall 2) and discover the world of genetics through hands-on activities for all ages:
Create and explore cells; Try a BSL3 lab photo corner;
Test your senses and learn about phenotyping; Explore genes.
#Clonality may be great for #persistence, but does it come at an #evolutionary #cost? Lineages relying strongly on clonality tend to #diversify more slowly than those reproducing mainly by #seeds

🦠 The #PROTOCELL experiment is heading into space!
The project led by @hlouchova-lab.bsky.social & @pluskal-lab.org at IOCB Prague is one of 13 Czech scientific and technological experiments supported by @esa.int that will become part of the now confirmed mission of Czech astronaut Aleš Svoboda.
🔬 This tenure-track position is roughly comparable to an assistant professor at a US university or to a new investigator position at Max Planck Institutes in Germany.

Cellulose is a semicrystalline polymer with domains controlled by a cooperative hydrogen-bond network and by solvophobic forces that do not energetically favor solubility. Ionic liquids dissolve such ...

(Review out today, in which we ask whether xylem disconnection arising early in wood anatomy is convergent with disconnection seen across tall plants and whether tree evolution requires disconnection given periodic drought.)
