Summary

Trump’s proposed cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) threaten U.S. biomedical research, forcing many scientists to consider leaving the country.

A 7 February policy would slash NIH funding by two-thirds, though a federal judge has temporarily blocked it.

Researchers relying on these grants fear for their jobs, with some already exploring options abroad.

The cuts particularly impact neuroscience, diabetes, and bird flu research, while also dismantling DEI initiatives.

Many scientists warn of long-term consequences for innovation and global health collaboration.

In fact, new research has shown that many responses in the larger invertebrates were complex, long-lasting, and pretty consistent with criteria for pain that had been produced initially for vertebrates such as rats. Octopuses, for example, can perform amazing feats of learning to avoid painful environments and choose painkilling environments. All this establishes and quantifies “feelings” in beings that are very different from us.

Yet, however far the science gets us, we could use the precautionary principle: we could assume it is possible that invertebrates have feelings, however differently they may be crafted by the millions of years of evolution they went through before we arrived.

The first documents tell of an abbey had occupying the site of the castle in the 11th century. The castle first gets mentioned in the 13th century. Originally the castle had three wings, 4 towers and a double wall surrounding it. Renovations in the 16th century transformed the wing above the river Loire into a "grand corps de logis" ("grand" living quarters) which overlooked a newly constructed bridge over the river. The bridge disappeared in a flood in the same century and most parts of the castle did not fare much better. The wing with the "grand corps de logis" is the only one which survived until today.
