For the last 5 years, my lab has focused on developing mutational scanning methods and learning how to answer specific questions in protein biology. @matthewkhoward.bsky.social and I wrote a review on experimental decisions and future directions for our nascent field! doi.org/10.1146/annu...

Mechanistic Mutational Scanning to Uncover the Secret Life of Proteins
Deep mutational scanning (DMS) has emerged as a transformative tool for dissecting individual protein function and broader cell biology. DMS methods enable comprehensive interrogation of sequence–func...

$95 b return on a $37 b investment. Federally funded research is a good return - even without, you know, remarkably effective new treatments for cancer, curing genetic disorders, making progress and improving the lives of those with neurodegenerative disease, etc. www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

As West Virginia University plans to cut apparently its entire foreign language program, it's whole graduate program in math and a slew of other traditional liberal arts, it seems worth resurfacing my NYTimes piece from last April:

Opinion | Colleges Should Be More Than Just Vocational Schools
Elected officials have pushed vocational programs at the expense of the liberal arts. That’s hurting America.
