Carl Wunsch, oceanographer: ‘The consequences of Trump are terrible. Funding is denied because, apparently, all of our research is a hoax’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the late 1960s, oceanographer Carl Wunsch was teaching at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)... but calculations being made from a classroom were proving insufficient. To understand the immense mechanism that regulates the planet’s climate, he went to sea, in order to measure and observe a system so vast that no research had yet been able to encompass it. That decision would define his career. The New Yorker, now 85, became one of the great architects of contemporary physical oce
Nancy Cartwright, philosopher: ‘People distrust science because they feel the system has abandoned them’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Are scientific laws enough to explain how the world works? Nancy Cartwright, 81, has spent more than half a century asking whether they really are. The philosopher has devoted her career to observing what happens when those principles are tested against concrete real-world cases: in hospitals, in economics, and in government public policy. From an early age, Cartwright was surrounded by lofty ideas. The Calvinist upbringing she received in New Castle, Pennsylvania, led her to ponder questions th
Dominique Lagorgette, philologist: ‘Solidarity among women is the only way to win more rights’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The word “whore” is probably the most common insult hurled at women, and has been so for centuries, argues Dominique Lagorgette, a French professor of linguistics at the Université Savoie Mont Blanc in Burgundy. For more than two decades, the 58-year-old philologist has researched the evolution of the French language from the Middle Ages to the present, with a particular interest in verbal violence. In Pute: Histoire d’un mot et d’un stigmate (or Whore: History of a word and a stigma) originally
The pool as therapy for people with severe neurological diseases: ‘I can do things without fear here’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A heavy heat is the first thing you notice when you enter the pool area of the Fundación Instituto San José in Madrid’s Latina district. The space is completely enclosed and the water is 33ºC (91ºF) in the middle of summer. But the temperature is comfortable and the facility has a system that controls chlorine and humidity with clinical precision. Nobody comes here to swim or cool off; they come to recover movements that disease or injury had made impossible. For Ángel García Rincón, the facilit
The Andean long-eared mouse, the mammal that holds the key to surviving at altitudes of more than 22,000 feet (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At the summit of the Llullaillaco volcano, on the border between Chile and Argentina, there is only rock, ice and snow. The white and arid landscape seems stripped of any sign of life. When evolutionary physiologist Jay Storz arrived at its peak, he had been tracking down the answer to a mystery for months. Mountain climbers had told him that they had observed a small, long-eared mouse that would have been living at the highest elevation ever documented for a mammal at the time: above 22,000 fee
