To everyone thinking that cutting the research budget makes sense because of public debt, I want to remind them of Mary Lasker's words: "If you think research is expensive, try disease" Doing science is not a luxury we can't afford. It is investing in our future.

Avery is a postdoc in my dept at GT, someone I know personally. She nearly died because doctors could not treat her miscarriage until she was actively dying- a direct result of anti-abortion laws in GA. VOTE, canvas, donate- do whatever you can, or this is coming nationally.

"I went to the hospital when I passed a dinner plate-sized clot of blood at home… the doctors are very clear this will progress to being life-threatening — But when exactly I am dying, that's not as easy a call to make, and they shouldn’t have to make it…" — Avery Davis Bell shares her harrowing miscarriage story and why Georgia's abortion ban put her life at risk

Yesterday a Nobel prize was given for alpha fold. Alpha fold could not exist without the Protein Data Bank (PDB), a public database funded by US taxpayers. Every structural biologist in the world that deposited their structure to the PDB indirectly helped train alpha fold.

These laureates are VERY deserving. But an important addendum—no model could be trained without 40 years of Helen Berman and others’ work at the PDB, and we would not be certain of AF’s success without 30 years of John Moult and others’ work on CASP. Hats off to them as well 🥂

The Li + Durbin 2011 paper showing that you can infer an entire population history from just a single genome is still one of the most mind-blowing results in genetics I have ever seen. nature.com/articles/natur…

This ‘snowflake virus’ door decoration in the @DukeU Center for Virology @DukeMGM may be one of the most impressive holiday decorations I’ve ever seen! And yet it came in second in voting per @TheLuftigLab Would love to see pics of the first place entry @valdi001 !
