Francis Collins and a team of researchers identified the cystic fibrosis gene over 30 years ago, and because of people like him I’m alive today with kids of my own (and able to enjoy a weekend trip to my favorite place on earth… Alta… and am healthy enough to enjoy it).

Today we published a deeply personal story about a genetic disease, a surgery, a round of IVF, a child. Here is the opening section: "We paused outside the unit, hand in hand. “We could go home, you know,” I said, glancing at my husband, Chris. We might have been buying a car or

Great interview w/ Sebastian S. Cocioba🪄🌷 by Asimov Press. He's doing "DIY Bio" and making a living out of it. I know someone else in NY who has a basement lab where he genetically engineers plants and silk worms. It takes a LOT of study and work, but monetarily the barrier is low!

I wrote about how population stratification in genetic analyses led to a decade of false findings and almost certainly continues to bias emerging results. But we are starting to have statistical tools to sniff it out. A 🧵:

5/ Quoting Mike Love: “A smaller p-value is not more interesting.” “We should focus on effect sizes.” He’s right.

In a single E. coli, about 25 percent of all proteins use metals (like zinc, iron, copper, magnesium, etc) to do their chemistries. And yet, incredibly, fewer than ONE FREE METAL ION is present per cell on average. There are, in other words, basically no loose metal ions
