A new Science #Immunology study in mice shows that anti–CTLA-4 #immunotherapy activates B cells in tumor-draining cervical lymph nodes, generating #glioma-specific antibodies that promote tumor clearance by macrophages. @heungkyulee scim.ag/4yk6I8z

How I sequenced my genome at home

A tutorial for the high-agency, intrepid tinkerer: how I sequenced my genome on my kitchen table, what it took, why each step is necessary, and what it actually costs.

New version of our preprint on bioRxiv about bioRxiv up. Now that’s what I call a revision – 6 years after the first version! It has new data about our progress and highlights from a massive user survey. 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Key study of Grail’s cancer detection test fails in setback for company

Grail's blood test for detecting cancer early failed to meet its main goal in a giant study being conducted with England’s NHS, the company said.

NIH head, still angry about COVID, wants a second scientific revolution

Can we pander to MAHA, re-litigate COVID, and improve science at the same time?
