Covid-29?, farewell to Ravenholm, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#18)
Busy week in the lab, running experiments that worked quite well (cool!). Temperatures on the rise, and not a lot of rain in sight (cool cool!!).

Back in Paris, where temperatures are nice but blue skies are some kind of mythological animal, it seems. Anyway, at least I did not have a lot of trouble with the allergies and the dirty air this time. Quite packed week at work (and it will probably get worse in the coming months), but still…

Slow week (holidays), but still managed to read some cool stuff. Let’s start: 1-hour delivery! To your door! At no additional cost! Not much to say, honestly.

Lost ships, the eye of Sauron, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#14)
Full week at a conference, so basically no news/links on my side. However, going back to meet people face to face was amazing. Super cool talks, nice food, and my body clearly saying to me that I am not used to being far from home for a full week anymore. Nature’s images of the month.…

Unlimited Love, mass bleaching events, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#13)
Quite a busy week at work, and tomorrow I am traveling to Strasbourg for some days to assist my first conference since the pandemic started.

The world is on fire, Tolkien drawings, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#12)
This week we had the best weather so far this year in Paris, and my allergies are still over the roof. On the conflict, Ukraine is still resisting the invasion. I’ve found a bunch of cool articles about the climate, a bit of super cool science, and some art from an old acquaintance. Let’s start:…
