Francesco M. Galassi wrote that, although he did not have all the definitive data, after reading the abstracts he believed there was no room for a scientific counteroffensive related to Sempio. He added that, in his opinion, the findings of the Prosecutor's Office would not be overturned. #garlasco #garlasco #scienza #giustizia (translated)
The author argued that a community that forgot its own past became impoverished, because the future needed roots and not nostalgia. He also recalled a phrase from Montaigne, according to which memory was "the treasure chest of knowledge." (translated)
The author wrote that public health was in crisis more than was thought. He said he spoke about it with science communicator Beatrice Mautino, discussing how to prevent politics from yielding to fears and false cures and how to re-center scientific method and rights. https://t.co/O3xU8ZRd1E https://t.co/DMvjtXFlGK #SanitàPubblica #Scienza #Diritti #IT (translated)
Francesco Figari, a professor of Finance, argues that the people of Piedmont are the most heavily taxed in Italy due to a hidden tax on the middle class and emphasizes how inflation and recent changes to regional tax rates also affect low incomes. #Tasse #Piemontesi #Inflazione (translated)
The author called the statement "we possess science" the most brazen admission of scientific corruption and manipulation made up to that point. #Scienza #Corruzione #Manipolazione #IT (translated)
Andrea Tosatto criticized Capra for insulting Massimo Giletti and treating others as ignorant, arguing that such an attitude did not strengthen the arguments but made them more arrogant. Tosatto reported that Capra considered negative tests irrelevant and claimed that a flat line did not necessarily demonstrate the absence of DNA. While acknowledging that such a trace did not automatically exclude the presence of DNA, Tosatto said that a negative result could not be dismissed as irrelevant for that reason. According to Tosatto, conflicting results would require checks on the correspondence of samples and analysis conditions, the reproducibility of the positive result, and the methods used to obtain it. He also questioned whether the sample had always been collected by the same person and hypothesized that the mysterious "Port" might have swapped the analyzed items. For this reason, he deemed Giletti's questions legitimate and stated that a negative result did not automatically render the positive result unassailable. Tosatto added that technical expertise did not authorize humiliating others and that, in his opinion, Capra had made a poor impression in front of millions of Italians. He also said that if he were Bossetti, he would have cried watching him on television. Regarding the Garlasco case, he argued that conclusions should be proven with verifiable documents, procedures, and explanations, and stated that Chiara Poggi deserved the truth. Finally, he challenged what he described as the presentation of a signature placed under the wording "seen everything" as if it were a signature on a complete document. #Giletti #Garlasco #Capra #Scienza #Verità #Rispetto (translated)

He added that the law should have followed science. #garlasco https://t.co/r3b4EfXsTC #garlasco #giustizia #scienza (translated)
Veronica wrote that that day was marked as "the saddest page" of the technical-scientific investigations. Referring to the Garlasco case and Unknown X, she praised Professor Fabbri, stating that no one could address others with his same effectiveness, and mentioned Pino Rinaldi. #PinoRinaldi https://t.co/17BFvZbdTW #indagini #scienza #tristezza (translated)

Karl Deisseroth woke up his daughters in their pajamas to joyfully announce that he had won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, sharing the award for his discoveries in optogenetics. #Nobel #Scienza #Optogenetica (translated)
Repubblica reported that Karl Deisseroth received the news of the 2026 Nobel Prize in Medicine shortly after midnight, awarded to him along with Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel, and waited until morning to share it with his five children. The video of the family scene was published by Stanford University in California, where Deisseroth trained and worked as a professor of bioengineering, psychiatry, and behavioral sciences. According to Repubblica, the three scientists laid the foundations of optogenetics, which combines genetics and optics to study cell behavior and control nerve signals with light. Their studies allowed for detailed observation of the brain, even intervening in the activity of single nerve cells in a living organism. The method was used in laboratories around the world to study how emotions and memories are organized. #Nobel #Medicina #Scienza (translated)
