And so, my friends, it’s a wrap! Leaving Alnylam as CEO for the last time. The last 19+ years have been epic. Thanks to all my colleagues and supporters!

RIP Paul Thurk, our 20-year partner at ARCH. Few people are just good, through and through. He was one. Good husband and father of four. Company builder. Always additive, made things better, happier, more manageable. Had impact. So solid. Always had my back. I will miss him.

It’s wonderful to see Jennifer and Emmanuelle recognized with the 2020 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The seminal “Jinek et al.” paper they published together has been cited >9,500 times—approximately once every 8 hours since its publication in 2012. (1/3) nobelprize.org/uploads/2020/1…

1) There is a lot of talk about decaying antibodies. I would like to walk you through a few findings about antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 that we put on medRxiv on Friday. Ill do this slowly over the day (while being in nonstop conference calls). But I feel this needs to get out there.

@Ptipirneni @MinistrySupply Oh yeah, have been loyal shopper. Original killer app was travel: wear one outfit and pack another for a 2 week trip.

My heart is full. Just had a tearful talk with our housekeeper about what it meant to her to have our checks continue while she was unable to work. All her other clients cut her off. Pls people. Philanthropy comes in all sizes. Support those who support you.

@Ptipirneni I took the kids to a protest last w/e, & gave similar tear gas safety seminar. I happily took their eye-rolling on the drive home. The right to congregate peacefully is something I will never take for granted!
