On this 25th anniversary of 9/11 I flew on AA12 from LAX to BOS. As I went through security, the whole airport paused for a moment of silence. As I arrived home, I was in time for Rosh Hashanah to ring in the new year 5787. May their memory be a blessing, and the new year be sweet.

A profound undertold story is Martin & Russell on origin of life: hydrothermal vents solve many chicken-and-egg problems (10.1098/rstb.2002.1183). An early step in this process is self-replicating RNAs. Earlier this year, Gianni (10.1126/science.adt2760) showed QT45 is one.

The daily global average sea surface temperature has just reached its highest level on record, per C3S. "The timing of the record is particularly notable. Global ocean temperatures are typically highest in March and April, following the austral summer, yet this record has been reached in August."

Fish form follows function. Thick body/tail=efficient thrust- like a launching rocket- good for filtering a wide area (top left). Small fins at all angles=moving in any direction- like a docking spacecraft- good for searching in nooks (bottom right). Webb, Amer Zool 1984.

While lifespan gains have been topping out , healthspan gains have not. This chart from John Beard et al (Nat Aging 2024) shows that newer birth cohorts are faring better as they age. Intrinsic capacity is overall measure combining the other 5.

I'm delighted to announce I'm joining Life Biosciences as Chief Operating Officer. I am excited by the platform of partial epigenetic reprogramming, both long-term in its potential impact on lifespan and healthspan, and near-term with a very real set of age-related diseases we are aiming to address.
