Low-cost generation of clinical-grade, layperson-friendly pharmacogenetic passports using oligonucleotide arrays
Almost all individuals will carry a genetic marker that affects their drug response
and warrants therapy adjustments. This study demonstrates the feasibility of a low-cost,

DOGE is directly involved in the NIH grant terminations.
Metadata on one of the grant termination letters says that someone named Joshua Hanley authored it.
Hanley is listed on an alleged list of DOGE employees leaked yesterday.

We found something interesting in the evolution of plant microbiota. It is under review and we published the preprint today. Avi Bograd from my lab analyzed the genomes of 38,912 bacteria and identified a clear depletion of all MGE types in plant-associated bacteria vs. non-plant associated bacteria
