A last paper. To our knowledge, the Biennale has never shown paleoart before. With Gabriela Amorós, Ana B. Marín-Arroyo & Federica Crivellaro, we bring a scientifically informed work that explores the ecological, artistic & social scope of the Venetian panel.

WHY BOTHER VOTING IN SPAIN? Just ask the Supreme Court, bishops, IBEX bosses, and Franco’s leftovers who should rule, who gets crushed, and who pays in silence. Keep people ignorant, the hierarchy sacred, and the cash flowing up. It’s tradition.

Neanderthals were not ‘hypercarnivores’ and feasted on maggots, scientists say Researchers believe humans’ closest relatives may have stored meat from their kills for months before eating it

This astonishing reptile lived during the Middle Triassic in Europe and it possessed an amazing crest made of plume-like structures!

I was commissioned to bring it to life

Just finished the Spanish edition of a book I’d already read in English. Flawless translation. Solid, well-told science—no drama, no nonsense. One of the great minds behind it. Congrats, Tom. (Photo: my old grape knife, harvest-trained in 1970).

La desvergüenza y ‘libertad de las cañitas’ contra la ciencia La lógica sostendría que para tomar buenas decisiones basta con los datos objetivos que arrojen luz sobre la cuestión en particular. Sin embargo, se

Un síntoma más de una sociedad débil y enferma que se vuelve incapaz de enfrentar realidades dificiles no es solo no escuchar las recomendaciones científicas sino que sea la desvergüenza la que lo impulse

Ariadna, one of my two artists, gave me this drawing: it brings back my childhood and the bond with Estrellica, a stray dog a friend and I once rescued. It was a tense night—we truly put ourselves at risk, as the city was rounding up dogs to be killed. That night, over 100 were saved.

How did Spain come to be one of the few nations holding firm on aid spending? | Ana Carbajosa

El capitalismo siempre encuentra un sustrato favorable en la estupidez colectiva, la cual viene de serie y además es fácil de promover si tienes acceso mediático. Si encima utilizas fundamentalismos religiosos, más fácil todavía. El sentido y el bien comunes importan un carajo si no convienen.

"Miracle" if Bournemouth retains university status after cuts, says protester Bournemouth University staff are protesting over planned job cuts in the first of four days of strike action.

Terrible times for academia. Those who enabled cuts, disrespect, and erosion of dignity—especially those in power—should be named. Their legacy is shame. If this continues, it will be a tragedy for British science. In Spain, we know the script

My godmother is turning 100 this August. She has seen much, according to her too much.

Proud to share a profession with Juanma Rubiales — committed, generous, ego-free, and an outstanding teacher. He’s achieved his dream of becoming a university professor. An honor to have colleagues like him.

Congratulations, very interesting.

Marine Charophyceae fossils from the Upper Ordovician confirm that morphological innovations key to the evolution of terrestrial flora predate emergence of land plants.

Late Paleolithic whale bone tools reveal human and whale ecology in the Bay of Biscay - Nature Communications Here the authors apply ZooMS, radiocarbon, and stable isotope analyses to whale bones from the Bay of Biscay. They find that humans were utilizing the remains of at least five species of whales from 20,000 years ago, and that those whale communities may have resembled today’s arctic waters.
