New therapeutic approach for malignant brain tumors: Researchers at the DKFZ and the @unimedizinma developed T-cells with a receptor that recognizes a glioblastoma-specific protein. In lab and mouse experiments, these T-cells destroyed the tumor cells. t1p.de/k3fhq

Whenever someone complains to me about Germany's lack of innovation, or criticises the pace of modernisation, I remind them that there was a time when Germany led the world in new ideas.
Sadly, the new idea in question was a Currywurst energy drink.

Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

This speech is full of half-truths, distortions, misleading claims and outright lies.
Basically living up to every meme, trope and unfair stereotype, of Americans being ignorant morons.
I'll go through each of the claims he made in this segment and what the actual facts are. /1
'In Britain and across Europe free speech, I fear, is in retreat'
US Vice President JD Vance spoke at the Munich security conference and took a swipe at Brussels, Germany, Sweden and the UK.

Just got back from London. No one tried to nick my watch, no one mugged me, everyone in the shops spoke English, and most people smiled at me. It's almost like X talks a load of rubbish. Best city in the world.

Like it or not: Germany’s energy system is fully operational, with more than 50% renewables. And we are shutting down – not building – coal & nuclear plants. Coal will be off the grid by 2038 at the latest. PS: We also don’t eat cats and dogs. #Debate2024
ALT Donald Trump during the presidential debate.

Spain, Portugal, Austria, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Turkey. All lost their empires in defeat. The UK is the only one that didn’t experience the reality check & we live with the consequences - a deluded, entitled population wallowing in a past they wish to recreate.

🧵 If the Tories come third, it changes everything.
Coming second would allow them to rebuild as the official Opposition.
But third place should finish them. It may take time, but they'd be walking dead.
It would also put Brexit back on the agenda, at last.
Here's why:

Taylor Swift has donated enough money to cover the food bills for an entire year across 11 food banks and 8 community pantries in Liverpool.
She has done this for every city she's toured in the UK meaning she’s done more than the govt has in 14 years to eradicate food poverty.

5 days to go. Remember when senior Conservatives showed they don't understand anything about trade

Really think manager should dress like Captain Haddock.
The Belgian kit for #Euro2024 is outrageously great, and has been designed to look like Tintin
Well done guys 👏👏👏

A very good review of the Conservatives' 14 years in power, by @PhilipJCollins1.
It's refreshing to read something on what these governments actually *did* - and what the consequences have been - rather than on how things "played" or how the party positioned itself.
What have the Tory years meant? The good (there is a little bit of that) and the really bad.
