check out a new preprint with implications for type 1 error control using pseudotime and other latent variables from single cell rna seq. important work and a fun collaboration! congrats @AnnaCNeufeld @lucylgao @popp_josh and @daniela_witten

@kathyxchen’s paper for sequence-based global map of regulatory activity is now out (nature.com/articles/s4158…)! Congratulations to all co-authors @wongak @OlgaTroyanskaya. Thanks to @anshulkundaje and @nameluem for the News & Views!

Almost 80 years ago, Luria and Delbrück measured mutation rate in bacteria. Today, in collaboration with @IFOMresearch Lagomarsino we adapted their assay to measure mutation rates before and under treatment in cancer cells. Find out more on @NatureGenet nature.com/articles/s4158…

Really excited and honored that MITx/edX is offering my free online course on healthcare finance, starting Feb 12 (register at edx.org/course/healthc…). Better financing means more capital to fund new therapeutics for patients in need. Please spread the word. Thanks!
