Hbd to Abdullah Ibrahim! 🎂 Listening to this 1995 trio gem. Maybe a little less straightahead than my usual 🎹 trio tastes. Nevertheless, involving and lovely. Hbd! 🍷

Americans are in conflict over policies for health care, housing, immigration, and the role of religion in society. Walter Isaacson on why a key sentence in the Declaration of Independence could help restore stability to our politics:
The Ideal That Underlies the Declaration of Independence
Restoring stability to American politics will require reviving an age-old concept: common ground.

The U.N. estimates that at least 1.9 million people were displaced during the war in Gaza. One of them is Shahd Shamali, who was given just 20 minutes to flee her home. Mohammed R. Mhawish recounts her experience, with illustrations by Rama Duwaji. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/R9Vsjr
In Gaza, Home Is Just a Memory
After the ceasefire, many Palestinians who were displaced during the war are still grieving the homes they can’t return to—and which they often had to evacuate in minutes.

Excited to share our latest work on the factors that determine what genes we find (and don't find!) in GWAS and burden tests.

We describe a critical concept that we call *specificity*.

Led by Jeff Spence and Hakhamanesh Mostafavi:
How do GWAS and rare variant burden tests rank gene signals?

In new work @nature.com with @hakha.bsky.social, @jkpritch.bsky.social, and our wonderful coauthors we find that the key factors are what we call Specificity, Length, and Luck!

Genetic association tests prioritize candidate genes based on different criteria.

What a freak
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is stepping up his attack on vaccines in America. One group will bear the brunt of the changes more than others, writes Nicholas Florko:

America is on the cusp of a two-tiered vaccine system.
