Former NIH director Monica Bertagnolli (a cancer survivor) tells the crowd at AACR25 to “Fight for your science. Fight for what you do for the American people" during these unprecedented times. Kimryn Rathmell, former NCI Director, says that we need to tell the stories of scientists to make change.

Jacob Thaysen took over at #Illumina just over a year ago (during a very tumultuous time.) He and I sat down at ASHG last month for his first deep dive interview, to chat about why he took the job, the past year, and his vision for the future. #NGS #genomics www.genengnews.com/topics/omics...

My latest editorial for GEN... "Thankful for Science" November always feels a little nutty. It could be the Thanksgiving break (whether traveling or hosting), the upcoming holiday season, or the beginning of the end of the year. But this year feels a little worse than usual. (1/8)

My lecture on #vaccines is coming up in my micro class, which I have taught dozens of times. But it has never felt so important. As always, I will include the story of Wakefield's Lancet paper and how the autism link was a sham from the start. Here's to hoping the next generation will be better off.
