From his textbook “Evolutionary Dynamics: Exploring The Equations of Life.” In the last sentence of the preface, after a couple dozen acknowledgements that are literally just a list of names, he has one last special thanks that gets its own paragraph:
“I thank Jeffrey Epstein for many ideas and for letting me participate in his passionate pursuit of knowledge in all its forms”

Harvard Places Math Professor Martin Nowak on Paid Administrative Leave Over Epstein Ties: https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2026/2/25/nowak-leave-epstein/
What in the French fried fuck, he gave a fucking shoutout to Epstein in the dedication of his textbook…?
That’s your issue and not the email from Epstein asking if he “tortured her”?
…how is that your takeaway from my comment?
Of course that’s entirely heinous. I was just remarking on the fact that the guy fucking put Epstein in the dedication of his textbook on top of that. It’s just an extra layer of gratuitous, gleeful evil that just beggars belief.
Not to be that guy, but Epstein wasn’t always known to be the bad guy to the general public, and this professor might not have known about the not public stuff he was doing. I haven’t read the article though, so maybe not.
Edit: read the article, Harvard only put the guy on leave because everything became public with the release of the Epstein files. It seems to be that this professor was in on it, and Harvard had taken action against him before but lifted the sanctions because of reasons.
That would be more true if he met Epstein couple times but this guy seemingly was very close with him. At this point he should be considered a collaborator in his crimes.
The book was published in October 2006.

So, um…
The title image literally quotes him asking “did you torture her”
That’s Epstein asking Nowak
Ah true, but still a good example to show that Nowak should have known that Epstein had a screw loose.
It’s a good example to show that Nowak was torturing women and girls
It’s a good example to show the commenters on lemmy lack reading comprehension.
Someone does.
Right there.
yeah…fuck that guy.
You are that guy man right in your own special way you are that guy
