You can make a multi-course meal with NIST standards. Quenelles de SRM 1946 anyone? Mousse au SRM 2384? Finishing with an SRM 1196, if you're so inclined. @benneely.com can probably tell you how to best prepare the SRM 1945.

NIH scientists say that mRNA vaccines have saved untold thousands of lives. A heroin addled nepo baby whose brain was partially eaten by a worm says mRNA vaccines are worthless and even dangerous. For busy medical patients, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Detecting cytokines in neat plasma/serum is hard, especially without any internal standards. Neither raw data nor Skyline files are made available.

Everyone talks about LLMs and AI in bioinformatics in terms of big breakthroughs. But the real impact I see is in the small things—data formatting, ID conversions, reproducibility. These tools free us up to focus on the science that truly matters.
