<p>Instead of marking the paper about SPIDER in red (to cite one),
the journalist could have done a better service by trying to
explain to the large audience what that article is about, and why
it contributed to the Nobel Prize. <br>
</p>
<p>An increasing number of people uses the internet to find answers
to their medical-related problems, and unfortunately there is vast
body of wrong information around, which is often more
understandable than scientific facts. Such wrong information can
lead to extreme cases, as movements anti-vaccines, for example.<br>
</p>
<p>I feel that the article on TheWire could have helped bringing
scientists and the public a bit closer; it has missed a precious
opportunity.<br>

<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Jacopo.</p>
