5. Being smart means nothing if you're lazy with it. Most “overnight success” stories took years of hard work.
Need more doctors like him 🥰👶🏼
26 anos. 8 monumentos. 3 Tours + 17 etapas. 1 Giro + 6 etapas. 93 vitórias. Infinitos ataques memoráveis. É surreal, não sobram mais adjetivos. 🔜🐐 #RVV25
One of the craziest finishes to an NBA game you’ll ever see.

📍Publication alert! After 5 years of hard work, setbacks, challenges, and unexpected turns, I’m beyond excited to finally see this work published in Studies in Mycology, a very high impact journal, ranked #2 in Agriculture and Biological Sciences panel! @cbma_uminho

Drinking more than 3 cups of coffee, especially in the mornings rather than throughout the day, may be one of the easiest ways to increase survival! Hurray for coffee…in the mornings 🤪☕️ academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva…
The global COVID-19 vaccination effort is estimated to have saved around 20 million lives — in just its first year.
On 20 Nov, CBMA's researcher Ricardo Duarte joined the forum at @terinov_pct, Terceira Island, with policymakers & experts to discuss funding strategies for #genotyping in agriculture. #ScienceForPolicy
Haha não tinha reparado no ridículo de quererem fazer se ao prémio Nobel com ainda menos financiamento do que o parco costume.

Ao mesmo tempo que corta 70M€ na Ciência, o Governo diz que sustenta a sua estratégia científica na promoção de um ambiente para os investigadores lutarem por lugares a prémio Nobel. Há coisa mais tacanha e pequenina do que isto?
Cortes de investimento na Ciência?! Quem diria... O orçamento da FCT passa para um valor inferior ao de 2009, mas não faz mal porque a inovação, o empreendedorismo e os unicórnios fazem-se com sonhos e palavras ocas, não com financiamento digno.

A democracia tem custos. Mas todos os projectos de investigação em todas as áreas (medicina, biologia, matemática, física, história, sociologia...), num ano, terem a mesma dotação orçamental que um mandato de 230 deputados, diz muito sobre o quão residual é o investimento em C&T.

Now that the Nobel prizes for biology, biology, and biology are announced, I can’t wait to see which biologists win for peace and literature!
Nós não os merecemos... 😢😢
My machine learning professor taught me something I'll never forget: Always focus on the analysis and don't worry about the code. Copy the code. Steal it. Ask somebody to write it for you. It doesn't matter. Coding is easy. Knowing what to code is what truly matters.
