My nonlinear journey to parenthood has fueled a deep passion for supporting reproductive health startups. Grateful to @ayacancode and @Forbes for the opportunity to shed light on the latest trends in the vital but often overlooked male fertility space. forbes.com/sites/ayaspenc…

As usual, @lesliejz nails it with her piece on why it’s challenging to build in women’s health. Like her, I also see ample opportunity on the horizon, not to mention massive upside for investors willing to think outside the box.

An article for anyone not interested in sleeping tonight 🤯🤯🤯 “The researchers found that 24 of the brain samples, which were collected in early 2024, measured on average about 0.5% plastic by weight.” theguardian.com/environment/ar…

@alexisohanian @nucleusgenomics We must be careful not to let genomic reports create a false sense of fear. Said differently, a 1.7% chance of Celiac is really a 98.3% chance you don’t need to worry. Reports should include interpretive thresholds and ranges - information is power, but noise can be very chaotic

Here's a glimpse into my @nucleusgenomics report. As more people learn more about their whole-genome, we'll get smarter about celiac disease, and hopefully also how to better treat it. 🧬

I’m on the hunt for research and startups working on ways to slow ovarian aging and delay menopause. Energized by what feels like progress: womenshealthmag.com/uk/health/fema…

According to the AAMC, the US will face a shortage of 86,000 physicians by 2036, so news like this makes my day. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @MikeBloomberg

Is anyone actually surprised by this? But also- now what??

The supplement industry and lack of regulation scares me. Confused how melatonin can be marketed to children if we don’t know the long-term side effects… and how do we not know more about a product that has been available since the mid-90s? thecut.com/article/melato…

This type of creativity is rare in tourism ads these days, most of which blend into each other. This is different, a typical understated Norse sense of dry humor. From @VisitOSLO. Well done, more needed in this series.

Are any startups out there working on getting microplastics and nanoplastics out of our bodies? If so, please send them my way!

Officially banning this version of Wheels on the Bus from my household and wondering why they sing it at every class I take my children to? 🚌🙅🏼‍♀️ @cocomelonkids

Back at it 😊

Changing your mind is not a sign of losing integrity. It's often a mark of gaining wisdom. Realizing you were wrong doesn't mean you lack judgment. It means you lacked knowledge. Opinions are what you think today. Growth comes from staying open to revising your views tomorrow.

Takes one to know one @PippaLamb 🥰

Since I can’t make it to @HLTHEVENT (sadly same week as @SlushHQ), I’m planning to hold healthcare founder office hours November 29th and 30th. Which startups looking for angel funding should I chat with?

@Maren_Bannon @mona_alsubaei @usv @congruentvc @hajak @palebluedotvc @elementalexcel @sacca @lowercarbon @KatapultOcean @katapultimpact + Sandwater

Who are the early stage climate & sustainability investors to watch? Including some that I follow: @mona_alsubaei and @usv @congruentvc @hajak and @palebluedotvc @elementalexcel @sacca and @lowercarbon Who else am I missing? Please add to this list 🙏🏽

Fertility is not just femtech. About 40% of infertility issues stem from the man’s side of the equation. Great to see Mojo making a splash in the UK market in partnership with @superdrug to offer discrete at-home sperm testing. Knowledge = power. dailymail.co.uk/health/article…
