In science we trust… up to a point by Adam Rutherford
Saturday August 22nd, 2015 at 2:43 PM

Eminent journals and peer-reviewed academic papers are supposed to convince us of scientific truth. Here’s why we should all be wary…

Science is emphatically not a belief system. It doesn’t require faith, and it works: civilisation is built on science working. But it’s a full-time job to keep on top of one subject, and impossible to stay up to date across a range of fields. We have to trust that the system works. But does it?

This is the process: scientists do the research – primarily paid for by you – which gets written up and peer-reviewed before publication as a paper in a journal. Getting published in a journal is not a mark of truth but that your research is credible enough to warrant entering the literature for ongoing scrutiny. Published papers are the benchmark of academic success, and the media’s main focus.

Europe on high alert after French train attack by heavily armed gunman by Mark Townsend and Kim Willsher

French authorities questioning suspect at counter-terrorism headquarters outside Paris

Security was stepped up on major European rail services as fears of “blowback” attacks by jihadis returning from Syria escalated after a gunman known to the intelligence agencies opened fire on a high-speed train bound for Paris.

The lone gunman is thought to be a 26-year-old Moroccan, known to Belgian, French and Spanish authorities, who travelled to fight in Syria last year, prompting speculation the attack was linked to Islamic State (Isis).

Are you thinking what I’m thinking? The rise of mind controlby Tom Ireland
Saturday August 22nd, 2015 at 2:41 PM

Network Front | The Guardian

Mind control still sounds like the stuff of sci-fi movies. But it’s coming closer, with implants that can help people with paralysis and, further off, devices to send thoughts between humans

Ahundred electrodes are pressed tightly against my scalp and a mixture of salt water and baby shampoo is dripping down my back. The goings-on in my slightly agitated brain are represented by a baffling array of graphs on a screen in front of me. When I close my eyes and relax, the messy spikes and troughs become neat little waves.

Next, scientists here at Newcastle University’s Institute of Neuroscience induce small electric currents in different parts of my head, using a technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). If they fire the device a few millimetres to the left of my brain’s motor cortex, I feel nothing. Hit my “sweet spot”, however, and my arm moves of its own accord.
