Time to pivot from AI into life extension? $20k up for grabs in this hackathon.

This this this!

Very insightful essay on some of the core bottlenecks in biotech! (+ why AI is unlikely to bring exponential gains for the time being)

How it feels going for a run in San Francisco:

I LOVE people who share what’s going on in their life & projects, what they’ve been reading, and anything they find interesting. (This is your sign to post more!!)

Are there any cool bioinformatics or AI x Bio bootcamps?

glad I'm immune to short-form video. surely being addicted to short-form text has no similar repercussions...

I fear the public will never truly realize the immense damage done to our scientific research system and its consequences. A loss of ~$4.5 billion in frozen or cancelled grants with at least 148 impacted clinical trials = 138,000 patients due to be enrolled or already enrolled.

Nvidia's market cap now exceeds that of all of big pharma combined.

My children will be soooo much smarter and more talented than me, and that makes me happy

I’m on a sort of “research sabbatical”, which I had always dreamed of. But I’m stressed, because I wonder: - how do I know if I’m allocating my time right? - what’s the right split between studying new topics, fundamentals, and reviewing? - how do I measure progress? Any tips?

Lately I’ve getting more tweets on my feed with few likes from accounts I don’t follow with <10k followers (vs viral ones), and I really appreciate that

I’ll be analyzing my own blood proteomics and single cell RNA data! A lot of these tools are available to researchers but haven’t made it to the clinic. We’re working on bridging that gap and unlocking new dimensions of personalized healthcare.

TUESDAY: Live single cell + proteomic analysis of your blood at the a16z SF Tech Week🩸🔬 learn about the future of multiomics & AI with Aevitas House!

I will tell my children they have the Mandate of Heaven
