Congrats to the amazing Kati Karikó & Drew Weissman on their Nobel Prize for vaccine-enabling mRNA science. I’ve been privileged to work & interact with them.
Brilliance is par for the course when it comes to Nobels; being a good, generous person makes it even more special. 💗

I seriously 🔥 my finger today with super glue. Had no idea this was a thing. And the only finger bandages I have are bright Orange. For subtlety.
