Und kann ein Blick auf die Dokumentation des EU-Parlaments Überlegungen über die Rolle des Tourismus in unserer Gesellschaft und seine Auswirkungen auf die europäische Integration anregen?
“The claws were bad enough in the first place – nasty, crawling little death-robots. But when they began to imitate their creators, it was time for the human race to make peace – if it could! […] Across the ground something small and metallic came, flashing in the dull sunlight…
Diagnosing follicular neoplasms in thyroid fine-needle aspiration specimens can be difficult, and for good reason: it is a diagnostic category intended for a family of lesions for whom it is generally not possible to determine whether they are benign or not. This unfortunately means that most patients end up getting surgery to remove at least the half of their thyroid where the nodule is present despite the absence of a firm diagnosis.
AI has played a pivotal role in Israel’s war in the Gaza strip since October 7 th 2023, when Hamas militants massacred 1,200 Israeli civilians and soldiers and took more than 250 hostage (CNN 2025). Reporting by Israeli and international news outlets have detailed how large language models and predictive analytics are helping to determine when and where bombs fall from the sky and troops shoot on the ground (Abraham 2024).

Godbey arrived in Cumberland in 1959 as the first president of what would become Southeast Kentucky Community & Technical College (SKCTC), he saw more than a campus-in-waiting tucked against Black Mountain’s northern flank.
This post is an updated version of the DOI registration workflow for a science blog post I published in September 2023. It reflects the best practices used by the Rogue Scholar science blog archive and contains one important announcement. In previous blog posts such as the one published earlier, I discussed the various elements involved in registering a DOI for a science blog post.
The Biocuration 2025 meeting held in Kansas City USA at the Stowers Institute (April 5-9) was a well organized blend of in-person and virtual participants. As regular attendees and International Society of Biocuration (ISB) members (see previous reports) GigaScience Press was represented by two members of the GigaDB team, Chris Hunter and Bastien Molcrette.
This week’s recap highlights FLAMES for prioritizing genes at trait-associated GWAS hits, integrating protein language models and an automatic biofoundry for enhanced protein evolution, benchmarking DNA sequence models for causal regulatory variant prediction, and the doubletrouble R/Bioconductor package for identifying and classifying gene and genome duplications.

Overture Over the last few years, I have been researching the militarized Kurdish landscape through a triangle of affinities linking the machine, the animal and the human. The interaction between the militaristic, the natural and the cultural unfolds as a sonic battle on the colonized landscape. Sonic booms, bird calls and songs of resistance echo in the same valleys.
To say that ours are darkening times is to acknowledge, that the present moment – the year is 2025 – is increasingly characterised by familiar modes of authoritarian oppression, of right-wing political cruelty and of inevitably rising geopolitical tensions in the context of which nuclear Armageddon and the necessity for autonomous weapon systems are frequently conjured up, often in the same breath.
