Now this is how you use data effectively. The UC graduate programs have always been ahead of the curve with data-informed decisions, and interactive transparency like this is how California continues to be a trailblazer in 2025.

I saw a resident give chocolate bars to National Guards patrolling DC's gorgeous Dupont Circle neighborhood. Never heard of a reverse hearts and minds program.

Wish I could have presented today on my single nucleus multiome analysis of the Substantia Nigra, one of the many effects of a government shutdown on dementia research #ASHG25 #governmentshutdown

I can't present my planned work , on single nuclei multiome analysis of neurodegeneration in the Substantia Nigra due to the federal government shutdown, but hit me up to chat about single cell pipelines at #ASHG2025!

Today is #Juneteenth. I want to take a moment to acknowledge the history and meaning behind this day, when all enslaved people in the US finally were emancipated, long after the proclamation. youtu.be/MCBLV0lFUKw?...

“We urge you as NIH Director to restore grants delayed or terminated for political reasons so that life-saving science can continue.”

Pope Francis really survived double pneumonia and acute respiratory distress only to meet with JD Vance and said “yeah, fuck this”

RIP, sir.

Even if you forget the life-saving research that you or a loved one might need someday, the NIH is one of the nations great economic powerhouses, the bedrock of the US's biomedical industry. The conversation should be about increasing funding.

In response to the emergence of H5N1 influenza A viruses as a novel pathogen of cattle, a study in Nature Communications shows that pasteurisation of cows’ milk should effectively inactivate the virus, but that it remains infectious in unpasteurised milk. https://go.nature.com/3WRQ8fb 🧪
