The domestic cat may be a far more recent arrival to Europe than previously thought, according to a 2025 Science study.
The findings offer new insight into one of humanity’s most enigmatic animal companions and identify North Africa as the cradle of the modern housecat.

R. David Lankes just wrote the post I wish I'd written. It really resonates, particularly this statement:
"So again, if you’re feeling off-balance about the rapid rise of generative AI, it’s not a personal failing. It is a shock, and shocks are conditions a field works through over time. This one is ours to work through, and to shape. "
If you're in the LIS field, go and read it. If you're not, go read it anyway. It won't take more than a couple of minutes. Really curious to hear your thoughts.

A GLIMPSE INTO THE MINDSET: "THE CHINESE ARE SO HARDWORKING!"
*In this series, I share common Chinese sayings that reveal how Chinese people think about work, business, risk, relationships, and authority. Because behind every phrase is a worldview and logic that shapes how China operates today.
⸻
吃得苦中苦,方为人上人
chī dé kǔ zhōng kǔ, fāng wéi rén shàng rén
"To endure the bitterest of the bitter, to become a person above others."
⸻
My mother said this line to me all through my childhood.
When I complained that homework was too hard. When I complained that life was unfair. And - without fail - when she cooked a dish of bittergourd for dinner and told me to finish it.
I hated bittergourd. That was rather the point.
It took me years to appreciate the message. Bittergourd - 苦瓜 - is bitter melon. And to endure hardship in Chinese is 吃苦: to eat bitterness. She wasn't only reciting a proverb over my schoolwork. She was making me practise it, one mouthful at a time, before life served me the harder version.
⸻
Ask almost anyone, anywhere, and they will tell you the Chinese are hardworking.
It is one of the most widely held impressions of a people on earth. But the West tends to read it as a trait - something in the culture, the genes, the water. As if it was how the Chinese are wired.
It isn't a trait. It is a value. In the Chinese mindset, the ability to eat bitterness is a badge of honour. Not a burden to be endured quietly, but a source of pride to be worn openly.
我能吃苦 - "I can eat bitterness" - is not a complaint. It is a claim to character. It is one of the most commonly offered descriptions of themselves by candidates at job interviews.
The badge is worn now - before any success arrives, and often when it never does. It is attached to the climb, not to the peak. You are already honourable by virtue of how much you can endure. Whether you ever reach the top is a separate question.
The factory worker on his 12th hour. The student on her 5th all-nighter. The migrant who hasn't seen his children in a year. Each holds, right now, a quiet sense of honour, because they can carry what others cannot.
This is a genuine strength, and worth understanding properly.
It produces people who do not quit when the returns haven't shown up - who push through the long, unrewarded middle where most others stop. Because in some self torturing way, they actually take pride in it.
It is also, in large part, what the world is actually pointing at when it calls the Chinese hardworking.

🇨🇳 Pourquoi en Chine 老 (lǎo) ne signifie pas toujours « vieux ».
Lorsque mes élèves commencent à apprendre le chinois, ils retiennent rapidement que : 老 = vieux.
Jusqu'au jour où ils rencontrent ces mots :
老师 (lǎoshī) → professeur
老板 (lǎobǎn) → patron
老王 (Lǎo Wáng) → « Wang »
Et là, une question revient toujours :
« Pourquoi les Chinois appellent-ils leur professeur ou leur patron "vieux" ? »
La réponse est simple. Parce que 老 ne parle pas toujours de l'âge.
1️⃣ 老师 (lǎoshī)
老师 signifie professeur.
Pourtant, aucun Chinois ne pense : « Voilà un vieux professeur. »
Ici, 老 exprime l'idée d'une personne expérimentée, digne de respect, qui transmet son savoir.
2️⃣ 老板 (lǎobǎn)
Si vous entrez dans un restaurant en Chine, vous entendrez souvent :
老板!
Ce n'est pas une façon de dire : « Hé, le vieux ! »
C'est simplement : « Patron ! »
ou
« Monsieur le gérant ! »
3️⃣ 老王 (Lǎo Wáng)
Entre collègues ou entre amis, il est fréquent d'appeler quelqu'un :
老王(Lǎo Wáng)
老李(Lǎo Lǐ )
老张(Lǎo Zhāng)
Même si cette personne n'a que 30 ou 40 ans.
Pourquoi ? Parce que 老 peut aussi exprimer la proximité, l'affection ou la familiarité. C'est un peu comme un surnom.
4️⃣ 老朋友 (lǎo péngyou)
Voici un autre exemple intéressant.
老朋友
Ce n'est pas : ❌ « un vieil ami »
mais plutôt : ✅ un ami de longue date
Le mot 老 met ici l'accent sur la durée de la relation.
5️⃣ 老客户 (lǎo kèhù)
En entreprise, on parle souvent de :
老客户
Il ne s'agit évidemment pas de clients âgés.
Cela signifie : des clients fidèles ou des clients de longue date.
6️⃣ 老地方 (lǎo dìfang)
Si un ami chinois vous dit :
老地方见!
Il ne veut pas dire : « Retrouvons-nous dans un endroit vieux. »
Mais plutôt : Retrouvons-nous à notre endroit habituel.
Alors, que signifie vraiment 老 ?
Selon le contexte, 老 peut exprimer :
✔️ le respect
✔️ l'expérience
✔️ l'ancienneté
✔️ la proximité
✔️ la fidélité
✔️ l'habitude
Autrement dit, 老 ne décrit pas seulement l'âge d'une personne ou d'une chose.
Il évoque souvent une relation construite dans le temps.
C'est une belle illustration d'une différence culturelle.
En français, le mot « vieux » renvoie presque toujours à l'âge.
En chinois, 老 peut aussi évoquer ce qui est familier, établi, expérimenté ou digne de confiance.
Une simple traduction ne suffit donc pas.
Car apprendre une langue, ce n'est pas seulement apprendre des mots.
C'est apprendre la manière dont une culture donne du sens aux mots.
💬 Et vous ?
Connaissez-vous un mot dans une autre langue qui semble facile à traduire… mais dont le sens change complètement selon le contexte ?
➡️ Partager avec votre réseau ! 🙂

📢 Pharma : LinkedIn devient un canal d’influence
Au 2e trimestre 2026, les laboratoires pharmaceutiques en France utilisent LinkedIn comme un véritable média d’influence sectorielle.
C’est l’un des grands enseignements du nouveau Baromètre #BeyondTheScore du 2ème trimestre 2026 dévoilé par LauMa communication et Buzz E-santé consacré aux usages social media des laboratoires pharmaceutiques en France.
La tendance est nette : moins de posts isolés, davantage de séquences éditoriales. Moins de communication descendante, davantage d’incarnation. Moins de discours générique sur l’innovation, davantage de preuves concrètes.
Investissements industriels, accès au progrès thérapeutique, IA, production, attractivité, parcours de soins, souveraineté sanitaire : LinkedIn devient un espace où les laboratoires ne parlent plus uniquement d’eux-mêmes, mais de leur rôle dans la transformation du système de santé.
La plateforme sert toujours à recruter. Mais elle sert aussi à expliquer, rassurer, mobiliser et influencer.
C’est un changement important : LinkedIn devient un canal stratégique de réputation active.

𝗟𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲 – 𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗲́𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻 – 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝗲́. 𝗔 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱’𝗲̂𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲.
Nous écrivons de manière trop complexe pour une minorité de lecteurs instruits. Voilà pourquoi il est urgent d'adapter nos pratiques.
📍𝗟'𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲́. En France, 3 millions de personnes sont illettrées ou analphabètes. Mais les études PISA et PIAAC révèlent que 50 à 60 % de la population n'a pas de capacité de déduction ou d'abstraction. Votre article littéraire et compliqué coupe d'emblée la moitié de vos lecteurs potentiels.
📍𝗟𝗮 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲́𝗼 𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗲, 𝗽𝗮𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗮𝗿𝗱. 77 % des personnes interrogées par le Reuters Institute consomment des vidéos d'actualité en ligne. C'est en partie une réponse à la difficulté de lire - et à l'accélération du flux. (Et sans doute, un facteur d'accentuation du problème, oeuf ET poule).
📍𝗟𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝘀 𝗱𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘀'𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗲. Sur Influencia - média B2B instruit - la durée moyenne de consultation d'un article est d'environ 1 minute 15. Il y a vingt-cinq ans, on était à 1 minute 30 à 2 minutes. Le delta semble faible. Ses conséquences sur la compréhension, elles, sont massives.
📍𝗟'𝗲́𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰̧𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗷𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗲𝘀. Une méta-analyse de 46 études (Clinton-Lisell, 2022) le confirme : dès qu'il faut déduire, relier, interpréter, la lecture prend l'avantage sur l'audio. Le lecteur contrôle son rythme et peut revenir en arrière. Le consommateur de vidéo/audio, non.
📍𝗖𝗶𝗻𝗾 𝗿𝗲̀𝗴𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲́𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. Sujet-verbe-complément. Information avant contexte. Titre qui donne déjà du contenu. Chapô court. Chaque paragraphe apporte une info nouvelle - sinon le lecteur décroche. C'est la progressivité verticale de l'info.
📍𝗟𝗲 𝗷𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝘂𝗲 𝗹𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲́𝗲. La connivence par les anglicismes agace autant qu'elle fédère. "Pain point", "street cred"... compris en agence, invisibles ailleurs. L'entre-soi suscite plus de rejet que d'adhésion, hors des murs du bureau.
Écrire simplement n'est pas écrire bêtement. C'est écrire pour être lu, vraiment. Et dans un flux qui s'accélère, c'est la seule façon de peser.

Citations are no longer a good measure. They are being actively gamed. Even Peer Reviews are now done to get more citations... Excellent Data story by Nature News. MA Oviedo-García has been looking at review mills for quite some time.
All peer reviews need to be made open to ensure such practices are caught and brought to light. We have proposed a pseudo anonymous open peer review system to be able to do so.

A very insightful article by Katarina Zimmer about peer-review milling was published in Nature yesterday. Read it here: https://lnkd.in/e5AgWcaR
It's fantastic to see that all the hard work by my friend and colleague MA Oviedo-García is put in the spotlight like this.
MA Oviedo-García states about review mills:
“I think it could be quite a common phenomenon,” she says, “and we’re probably only just [seeing a] tiny bit of it.”
I've been very lucky to have had the ability to collaborate with MA Oviedo-García and Dorothy Bishop on the topic of peer-review milling. The paper, which is also highlighted in the news article, was published earlier this year in Accountability in Research. Read our paper here: https://lnkd.in/eXgEV_QV

How can we better integrate social sciences and ethics into Health Professions Education?
Let’s look at a piece of research in MedEdPublish that addresses this question:
📃Integration of Social Science and Ethics in the Clinical Curriculum
Social Sciences are an important part of the medical school curriculum, highlighted by the General Medical Council’s Outcomes for Graduates. However, the integration of social science in the clinical curriculum can be challenging. This article reviews the integration of social science in the clinical curriculum of a Scottish Medical School to identify gaps and opportunities.
Read the full article https://ow.ly/bt7z50ZvJIP
💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts:
How do you think medical schools can better integrate social sciences and ethics into clinical training to improve patient outcomes and healthcare delivery?

Google has unveiled SymptomAI, an agentic system for diagnosing illness in patients.
This work tackles one of the biggest obstacles in Health AI today, and shows what's coming down the road.
In the Fitbit app, SymptomAI performed end-to-end interviews with 13,917 participants and made a diagnosis. Its predictions were checked against self-reported clinician diagnoses from a subset of the participants. SymptomAI outperformed three independent board-certified physicians working from the same interview dialogue (73% vs 60% top-5 accuracy).
Even more interestingly, they then used SymptomAI's top-1 diagnosis (~400 unique conditions) for all participants and compared it against 500,000 days of wearable data. They found significant correlation between a variety of AI diagnoses and users' biosignals. While fraught with risks that need to be managed, this sort of bootstrapping may be a critical step towards developing the volume of data necessary for robust diagnostic systems based on sensor data.
SymptomAI is aimed at one of the most significant barriers in Health Foundation Modeling: high quality medical labels. Self-supervised learning on sensor data only gets you so far without medical targets to predict against downstream, regardless of model power. A few weeks ago, Google's SensorFM ran into this exact barrier: a trillion minutes of data from 5 million users, but only 14 thousand users with medical labels.
This also points at a fundamental reordering in healthcare: early diagnosis and triage performed via automated systems at the patient's convenience. No more waiting until people feel "sick enough" to visit a doctor. Access to diagnosis for those currently without. Although Health AI may still be in its early days, the shape of what may come is starting to grow clearer.

How to understand what happens after you click “Submit.”
Many researchers think submission means the paper goes straight to reviewers.
It usually does not.
Before peer review, your paper may pass through:
• technical checks
• formatting checks
• plagiarism screening
• editor screening
• scope assessment
• contribution assessment
This is where many papers are rejected early.
Not always because the research is bad.
- Sometimes the submission is incomplete.
- Sometimes the journal fit is weak.
- Sometimes the does not follow author guidelines.
The publishing process usually moves through:
1. Choose the right journal
2. Upload complete submission
3. Pass editorial checks
4. Enter peer review
5. Respond to reviewers
6. Receive editorial decision
7. Complete proof stage
8. Final publication
The rule is simple:
Do not treat submission as the final step.
Treat it as the beginning of a new process.
Save this to track your next journal submission.
What stage do you find most stressful: submission, peer review, revision, or waiting for the decision?

At the recent International Journalism Festival in Perugia, Italy, Jeff Jarvis, Professor of Journalism at CUNY, gave a keynote speech that provides valuable insight and advice as to where the future of news and journalism are headed.
While the full keynote and the Q&A with the audience is recorded in full in this 55' mins long video, I have summarised here below his key points and takeaways, so that you can get at least a good basic idea of his viewpoints in under 3 mins.
The value of this keynote for content curators is the fact that Jeff Jarvis highlights and validates a process, mission and approach where the ability to collect, vet and curate information, resources and tools, to satisfy a specific need, is going to take a much more central and important role in the development of new forms journalism and in the evolution of the business models that will support it.
Jeff Jarvis' Key 15 Takeaways on the Future of Journalism:
1. Mass audiences don't exist.
This is just a way to look at people that served the mass media industry model.
2. Journalism is in the service business.
We must fundamentally rethink the way we produce the news, so that they actually serve specific people needs.
3. Journalism needs to specialise.
Do what you do best and link to the rest.
4. Relationships and listening
Need to listen and create relationships with their community
Need to understand what the problems and needs and intercept them
5. Journalists need to become community advocates
Need to change how we evaluate waht we do as journalists
Must help people to make sense
6. Community.
Move from media-centric to community-centric
Go to the community first, to observe, to ask and listen, before creating content that serve their needs
7. Membership.
This is not about subscriptions.
It is about collaboration and what we do with the community we serve.
People don't want to belong to a media organisation.
People want to be part of true passionate communities.
Community can contribute: Content, effort, marketing, resources, ideas, feedback, customer assistance, etc.
8. Beyond articles.
Continuous live blogging, tweeting, data, etc.
There a lot more formats that can be used to create valuable content.
9. Mobile is not about content delivery.
Mobile is about use cases
re-organise the news around the public specific needs we would create higher value that by following our own production cycle.
What about if we broke up news in hundreds of different use cases that specifically apply to mobile?
For example: give me all the world news that count in 2 mins.
Or: I want to know everything that happens about this story, in real-time
or: I want to connect with members of my community and accomplish something
10. We've to re-invent TV news
TV news sucks.
There is a lot of untapped tech that we can use.
Great opportunities to do better.
11. Business Models - Digital first
Every journalist is fully digital.
Print comes after digital.
Print no longer rules the culture of a newspaper.
12. The traditional (ad-based) mass media business model kills journalism.
By importing the old business model of mass media onto the Internet, with reach and frequency, mass, scale, volume, we have corrupted journalism.
Clicks will inevitably lead to cats.
If your goal is more clicks you will put up more cats.
We have to move past volume, to value.
We need give more relevance to our readers.
And we can do so only if we get to know them as individual members of a true communities.
13. Paywalls are not the way to go.
The idea of selling content online doesn't work very well. Unless you are Bloomberg or someone who sells information that is very fresh and valuable for a specific need.
14. Native advertising is not going to save us.
Rather, with it, we may giving up our true last values, as our own voices, authority and our ability to tell a story. If we fool our readers into thinking that native advertising comes from the same people who gives them the news, we have given up our last asset. Credibility.
15. Rethink the metrics.
Views, clicks, likes are no longer appropriate.
Attention is a better metric. (see Chartbeat).
The metric that is count to count most is going to be more qualitative than quantitative and it is going to be about whether we are valuable in people's lives. I don't know how to measure that, but we need to find out how to do it.
My comment: This is a must-watch video for any journalist seriously interested in getting a better feel for the direction and focus that news and journalism will take.
Insightful. 10/10
