Is everything bigger in #Texas?? Me & @BradMoore_SIO are stoked to unveil the “PKZILLAs”: Genes for the new largest known enzymes and proteins in #biology, from the Texan fish-killing alga Prymnesium parvum. PKZILLAs make their giant 90-carbon polyketide toxin, prymnesin! 🧵1/n

We asked nearly 200 teachers to interview their (~4000) students about this past year and their hopes for next year. Then, we asked them what they planned to do differently next year as a result. This is some of what they said: 🧵

67% of all Americans now wear masks—up since May by over 13%! If we make it to 80% the virus could be extinguished in less than a month. If 80% of a population is protected, 4 out of every 5 people won’t spread it further. We can do this! ❤️😷🇺🇸

Is everyone reading this??! I gotta break down this science real quick. This study compared COVID-19 mortality rates by racial/ethnic group AND age. It found: Among folks aged 35-44, Black people had a COVID mortality rate 9 *times* as high as whites. cdn1.sph.harvard.edu/wp-cont…

We are in the early days of a beautiful & dangerous revolution. This clip is from 2018. Anybody telling you that we’re in a “moment” hasn’t been paying attention. Rest up. Stay well. I believe that we will win. ✊🏾🖤

HBCUs mostly aren’t LPs in venture funds... a problem I’ve been thinking about for over a year now. It’s compounding the divide in generational wealth (Morehouse’s endowment is ~$140M vs billions at other schools)...no one’s talking about this but it’s an easy thing to fix

Here's the entire interview with @kimlatricejones and David Jones Media. Take a second to watch the whole thing because she makes even greater points throughout the entire interview than she does in the viral clip that is circulating. Her Monopoly comparison is spot on.
