Harvard professor Martin Nowak identified in Epstein torture emails
>>>>> x.com/theepsteinfiles/status/2023163257666883925?s=46 <<<<<
Nowak maintained a close personal and financial relationship with convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.[31] The preface of his 2011 textbook, Evolutionary Dynamics: Exploring the Equations of Life, ends with "I thank Jeffrey Epstein for many ideas and for letting me participate in his passionate pursuit of knowledge in all its forms."[32]
In response to the revelations of Epstein's support of Nowak and his lab (the Program for Evolutionary Dynamics), in 2021 Nowak was suspended from supervising undergraduate research for two years, and the institute was permanently closed.[33][34] Harvard's review, leading to the suspension, uncovered that Epstein had maintained access to a personal office in Nowak's lab for 9 years, even after his conviction for sex crimes, and used the office over 40 times, "typically accompanied by young women serving as his assistants".[35]
In 2023, Harvard lifted the sanctions against Nowak, and he remains on the faculty, jointly appointed in the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology.[36]
According to The Times, Nowak emailed Ghislaine Maxwell to thank her for her “amazing hospitality”, with a little apology about a near miss: “i am so very sorry i caused you so much worry and that i spoilt this day. i am so happy that i did not kill anybody. my perspective of life has changed somehow… lots of love martin.”[37]
Nowak is a Roman Catholic.[29] In a 2007 lecture at Harvard, he argued that science and religion occupied different but complementary roles in humans' search for meaning, stating: "Science and religion are two essential components in the search for truth. Denying either is a barren approach."
