Les conclusions explosives des Assises du financement des universités : frais d’inscription multipliés par cinq, ouverture à la réduction du nombre d’étudiants…Le ministre de l’enseignement supérieur, Philippe Baptiste, souhaite qu’un débat s’ouvre sur ces sujets lors de la campagne présidentielle et estime qu’il « faut réfléchir à des mécanismes contributif...www.lemonde.frImpressive work.
Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA)Photosynthetic bacteria helped shape Planet Earth. Among them cyanobacteria—microbes that produced the oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere & made complex life possible. They have captivated scientists for decades by offering insights into how life evolved from single cells into multicellular organisms.
How do simple cells make complex patterns? We discovered a key piece in cyanobacteria—an ancient enzyme repurposed to activate a pattern-forming signal. A conserved signaling strategy, showing how nature reuses tools to build multicellularity. www.cell.com/iscience/ful...
