My thoughts on the defunding of disease cure research, origin of COVID, the executive order on so-called gain of function research, China’s advances in biotech, the spread of avian flu, and why the US needs to shed this fictional worldview ASAP.

So happy to have contributed a small bit to this project. It is an awesome paper and you should check it out!
Super excited to share this new preprint from our lab describing the Jamaican fruit bat placenta! 🦇
Here we analyzed the bat placenta by snRNAseq, compared it to the human and murine placenta to identify unique features, and developed bat placental & decidual organoids for use as models!

Never imagined I’d have to say this, but if you want to have a look at NIH RePORTER to see how much NIH funding your state receives so you can write to your elected representatives, you’d better do it now, and get a screenshot.
