15 years ago, Sam had a lung transplant. 7 years ago, he died from organ graft rejection. The experience made me pivot some of our research towards supramolecular regenerative medicine. Proud to write a review of emerging global research using low-molecular-weight gels. pubs.rsc.org/is/content/a...

This post is utter, utter bullshit. The establishment of a single patient record had been something government has rightly been trying to do for nearly 30 years. If Palantir is given access to NHS data, the existence of a single patient record will, at worst, make it marginally easier for them.

"Can tech save the world?" is the wrong question. The right question is "what kind of world do we want to build?", and then the tech can help us get there. It's the re-invented worldview that the tech gives you access to that matters. The tech needs to support that worldview, not dictate it.

A large blue graphic promoting "useR! 2025" is shown. The main section on the left details information about the conference: "8 - 10 August 2025," "Penn Pavilion, Duke University," "Durham, North Carolina," and "Hosted by Duke University and Duke Center for Computational Thinking." Below this, there's a notice about ticket sales: "Normal ticket sales will be ending July 15th. Get yours before the price increase!" A table compares "Regular" and "Late & Onsite" prices for "Student," "Academia," and "Industry" tickets. Prices are listed as $200, $450, and $650 for regular, and $250, $550, and $800 for late/onsite. The lower left corner features the "useR! 2025" logo with a bull illustration. The background appears to be a blurred image of a large conference hall with attendees.
