Asian scientists are underrepresented in top US biomedical research prizes, analysis finds. While Asian researchers comprise roughly 20% of the field, over 90% of research prizes go to white recipients. Commentary in @cellcellpress: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Why Nature supports Joe Biden for US president: He is the nation’s best hope to begin to repair damage to science and the truth — by virtue of his policies and his leadership record in office, as a former vice-president and as a senator. go.nature.com/3lOTBpR

Our most recent story is online in Nature!
We show that:
- PTBP1, MATR3, TDP-43 and CELF1 assemble on E-repeat of the lncRNA Xist to form a condensate in the Xi
- The condensate is required for gene silencing and anchoring of Xist to Xi territory 1/5

Question for Twitter.
Why didn’t academia take the lead on Covid information? Why didn’t schools of med & public health across the US band together, put forth their experienced scientists in epidemiology, virology, emergency & critical care, pandemic and disaster response...

Our paper “Reconstruction of full transmission dynamics of COVID-19 in Wuhan” is online in Nature. We showed two key features of COVID: High transmissibility (R0=3.5) & high covertness(up to 87% undetected cases), estimated the chance of resurgence(1/n)
