What's a weird, small, but secretly very cool city that I can get to on Amtrak

What an absolute joke of a refereeing performance

@AlasdairGold What a joke

Calvert-Lewin fires home the penalty. 1-1. football.london/tottenham-hots…

Ampadu throws himself into a kick in motion and it's a penalty are you kidding me

We are saddened to share that Suzanne Bourgeois, Salk professor emerita, founding member of the Institute, and pioneer in gene regulation research has passed away at the age of 94. Suzanne helped shape Salk from its earliest days. After training in Brussels and Paris, she moved to La Jolla in 1963 at the request of Jonas Salk, alongside her husband, Melvin “Mel” Cohn, to help build the Institute. As the founder of Salk’s Regulatory Biology Laboratory, Suzanne was a pioneer in gene regulation research. She studied how cells turn genes “on” and “off” using the bacterial lac operon as a model system, demonstrating that the lac repressor is a protein and, for the first time, characterizing the interaction between a regulatory protein and DNA. Her later work expanded into gene regulation in animal cells and identified compounds that could help reverse multidrug resistance in cancer. Suzanne’s legacy is woven into Salk’s science, history, and community. She will be deeply missed. We extend our heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues. salk.edu/news-release/s… #SalkInstitute

The bottom scenario exists, it's called Los Angeles.

A lot of people are asking: “Could #hantavirus become another pandemic?” Probably not. But that’s the wrong question. The better question is: “Do we have systems capable of detecting and responding to unusual outbreaks quickly?” That’s what truly matters

🚨 I wrote for @statnews on the #hantavirus cruise ship outbreak and what it reveals about outbreak dynamics in an interconnected world. The U.S. withdrawal from @WHO couldn’t come at a worse time — especially with @FIFAWorldCup on the horizon and millions crossing borders. Global surveillance works because everyone participates. 🌍⚽🦠 statnews.com/2026/05/05/han…

The smartest doctors in America are actually nephrologists and ID doctors, probably. They essentially take a big $ cut to study complex systems for 2-3 more years; there’s no big pay day at the end, so they’re in it for the love of the game. You can’t tell in other specialties😅

@Dill_Wodd I took her class at UCLA. A phenomenal teacher.

I learned in this piece that Steve Kerr’s mom, Ann Zwicker Kerr, is 90 years old and still teaching Middle Eastern studies at UCLA. She’s also giving a commencement speech at University of Arizona this year… his family is cool as fuck

Getting literal family involved in another Rockets playoff humiliation ritual might be unassailable GOAT material

That’s our director!

Kenneth Mejia is by far the most effective elected official in Los Angeles.

The hill I will die on - we have to rethink graduate training. “Scientists are trained for a world where data speaks for itself. Where misinformation moves slowly. Where scientific expertise naturally rises above noise. That world is gone.” sciencepolitics.org/2026/03/18/wer…
