Journal contribution. https://hdl.handle.net/2134/28806863 [The Securitate was a rather frightening thing in Communism Romania, even after the fall of Communism, my mother was especially terrified of “them” and “them” coming during the night and disappearing us. I think drawing attention to such behaviours, taking into account what is currently happening in the US is important. Maybe we can learn from it. And being Romanian, I will always promote other Romanians doing great research work 🙂]
