L’école n’est pas neutre. Pour certains adolescents, elle représente un stress constant, où l’incertitude de l’avenir se mêle à la pression quotidienne.

Et demain, on consacrera notre émission à l'humain de Denisova :
Ce mystérieux cousin asiatique de Néandertal a enfin un visage ! Que nous apprend-t-il des interactions entre les différentes espèces du genre Homo ?
Ce sera à 16h sur @franceculture.fr ! #ScienceCQFD

En 1600 un Européen consommait à peine 87 grammes de sucre par an
En 1800, 9 kilos

Are digits modified fins, or evolutionary innovations? Read how we tackled this old question from a new angle🧪
A story with @chasebolt.bsky.social, @homeobox.bsky.social and myself, coordinated by @denisduboule.bsky.social from @college-de-france.fr and published in @nature.com today!

Archéologie musicale, c'est le luth final
Des flûtes en ivoire de mammouth ou en os de vautour qui remontent à plus de 35.000 ans jusqu’aux innovations d’aujourd’hui en passant par les psaltérions et les lyres de l’époque gauloise, chaque époque a marqué l’histoire de la musique. Comment retracer cette évolution ?

Léger, pratique, durable : le plastique devait révolutionner notre quotidien.
Il l’a fait.
Mais aujourd’hui, cette invention est devenue une inondation.
Chaque année, des millions de tonnes s’ajoutent. En 2050, ce sera peut-être un milliard.

This is the first ever confirmed skull of a Denisovan
Finally, we can put a face on a Denisovan.
My latest story is based on papers in @science.org and @cp-cell.bsky.social revealing Homo longi aka 'Dragon Man' was a Denisovan - or is it the other way around? Featuring @benceviola.bsky.social, @fridowelker.bsky.social and @chrisbstringer.bsky.social. www.nationalgeographic.com/history/arti...

A very short summary of "Data Visualization against fascism":
Fascism conceals truths, disregards evidence-based decision-making, and jeopardizes the education of the next generation. Standing up against means: MONITOR, EXPOSE, and EDUCATE. As scientists we are ready for this!

Une nouvelle étude révèle que la bipédie occasionnelle des babouins présente des ressemblances avec la nôtre. Avec de légères modifications du bassin, leur locomotion pourrait être aussi "efficace" que celle des humains. Un résultat qui éclaire l'origine de la bipédie humaine

Future studies on fossil hominins will tell if this is a unique human trait reflecting a developmental shift in our evolutionary history.

In all 3 populations studied, we show that the upper and mid-face are actively resorbed during early developmental stages, reflecting the need to maintain a non-projecting face. 👶

Loin de moi l'envie d'être mauvaise, mais... le CNRS "choose" déjà pas grand monde non ? Viendez donc take un contrat à durée determined, not very well rémunéré, dans des labos mis en compétition to lower the budget alloué à la recherche ?

Archaic humans such as Neanderthals and Denisovans are extinct but their DNA lives on in many humans today because our ancestors met and had children with them.
