Steele: This column has not been evaluated by the FDA (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was established for two purposes: 1) to protect us from our still-substantial ignorance of our own human biology, and 2) to protect us from people and organizations who want to take advantage of that ignorance to their own benefit. In essence, our incomplete knowledge of our complex inner workings makes foretelling the effects of everything we ingest, slather on or inhale very hard to do without extended testing. Not to mention the challenge of knowing
Steele: You can’t keep a good scientist down (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Despite the recent attacks on scientific research — most of them coming from the very U.S. agencies charged with promoting science! — I am delighted to report that scientific inquiry continues to thrive, especially in more obscure corners. “The 36th First Annual Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony” on September 3 in Zurich, Switzerland (moved this year from the United States for the first time to allow the safe participation of non-US scientists), spotlighted some particularly entertaining investigations, m

Embracing the growing need to educate the general public about climate change, the iconic Natural History Museum in London closed its “Hall of Human Biology” gallery in 2021 to make way for a new large exhibit they named “Fixing Our Broken Planet.” Given the imminent threat of climate change (and the even greater threat of climate denialism), the substitution is understandable. But I am still sad that what was perhaps the greatest interactive exhibit about human biology and diversity in the worl
Steele: Let’s stop feeding on this POTUS-inspired diet of worms (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Being the oldest of six children had its privileges, but I learned early that claiming victimhood was not among them, at least with my mother. If I ran to her whining about how unfair or mean or annoying one of my younger siblings or neighbor kids was, and complained that their actions or good fortunes or simply their existences were somehow diminishing my well-being, she would put on the sweetest smile and sing softly: “Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, I think I’ll go eat worms.” Her gentle
