One of the most difficult human impulses to overcome as a scientist is that once you have decided something is true it becomes increasingly difficult to see evidence to the contrary.

Excited to share the first paper from my team at Merck. Sometimes, in vitro translation systems like mRNA display make mistakes - but does it happen often enough to matter?

patents are a small part of the big pharma machine, but I would add staffing changes at USPTO to the list of things pharma/biotech should be concerned about

Biopharma companies and CEOs are keeping their heads down at their own peril. They should speak up about what’s happening to the NIH and other science agencies before it’s too late.
Silence gives consent. And no one should consent to this.

It made it all the way into production (open beta) since it is totally invisible in short playtests, especially in the editor. I only found it because I wanted to expose […]
