RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen.

1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

Delighted to share our latest paper describing a method to read the levels of hundreds of metabolites or drugs in parallel using DNA sequencing. This method, which we call ‘smol-seq’ (Small MOLecule sequencing), harnesses the power of DNA sequencing for metabolite detection:

Quantifying metabolites using structure-switching aptamers coupled to DNA sequencing
Nature Biotechnology - Metabolites can be quantified using a combination of aptamers and DNA barcodes.

TRUMP TRADE WAR UPDATE:

Colombia: Lasted 4 hours - Trump accepts what was already offered.
🇨🇴

Mexico: Lasted one weekend - Trump accepts worse than before.
🇲🇽

Canada: Lasted one weekend - Trump accepts what was already agreed.
🇨🇦

Two-step process established:
1. Try to look tough
2. Just fold

An incredible photo from Berlin this evening.

An estimated 100,000 have been on the streets in the German capital today to protest against the Far Right and fascism in Europe.

This is the cowardice of The New York Times. Legacy media is failing.

It seems easy to make fun of basic science – for example why would you want to study bacterial immune systems? But then you would have to admit that that’s exactly what led to the discovery of using CRISPR as an insanely good technology for genome engineering.

Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project.
