Sometimes the microbe grows, sometimes the microbe sleeps. Why do you expect microbe to grow every time?Does microbe expect you to wake up at 6am every day? No! That's now how this works, buddy. The microbe can do what it wants, your OD readings be damned.

Good news! We decided to start our own cryptocurrency. We will now pay all faculty salaries in our university currency, redeemable at the food court, bodega, and book store! Just wait until ucoin catches on!

Excited to share XYZeq, a single-cell RNA-seq workflow that also resolves the spatial location of each cell: advances.sciencemag.org/cont…. XYZeq was jointly developed with @MarsonLab, Eric Chow and lead by an incredible team of trainees (Youjin Lee, Derek Bogdanoff, Yutong Wang).(1/n)

I can't believe I'm saying this this year, but I think this might be bigger than RNA vaccines. DeepMind can effectively predict protein structure with the fidelity of crystallography. sciencemag.org/news/2020/11/…

Extremely excited today to reveal the first of two great works (magnus opera?), just posted on bioarxiv, applying regulatory network analysis techniques to PDAC expression data to dissect the underlying biology of the disease. Tweetorial time! 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
