New York Times: Under govt pressure, Chinese scientists have withheld or deleted data.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) research has emerged as an independent scientific field in recent years. Despite their association with critical cellular and metabolic processes in plenty of organisms, lncRNAs are still a largely unexplored area in mosquito research. We propose that they could serve as exceptional tools for pest management due to unique features they possess. These include low inter-species sequence conservation and high tissue specificity. In the present study, we investigated the role of ovary-specific lncRNAs in the reproductive ability of the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albop...

...officials at the NIH hid crucial information about early genomic sequences of the COVID-19 virus on orders of Chinese scientists.

Two stories about the National Institutes of Health hit the news today. The first arose from testimony by acting NIH director Lawrence Tabak before a House Appropriations subcommittee. Tabak admitted that NIH hid genetic information about the covid-19 virus that could have shed light on its origin, at the behest of the Chinese Communists: National Institutes of Health acting director Lawrence Tabak confirmed to lawmakers Wednesday that US health officials

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) made an error when it took COVID-19 sequencing data offline, the agency's ...
