🧵 Here are 10 amazing things that happened this year in #biotech.🧬

2022 ends with a bang...after years of work our immune single cell (CITE/TCR-Seq) mapping of adult and pediatric AML is our today Nature Cancer ! The work was headed by two stars in the #AifantisLab, Audrey Lasry & BettinaNadorp #leukemia (1/5) nature.com/articles/s4301…

Recently introduced to the HHMI Making the Right Moves resource anddddd *everyone* graduate students, postdocs, PIs, etc should read. these. documents. They clearly and concisely lay out good general lab practices and offer solutions to common issues. hhmi.org/science-educat…
