My wife has volunteered at a local food bank for years and confirms what many of you have probably heard: in this case, straight cash is a good donation if you can do it.

The food banks have better access and buying power than individuals do, and can try to address item imbalances as they see them.

Looking up info on #JPM2026 for a client - not me thinking this was a picture of a ship sinking…

I mean…kind of appropriate for the state of biotech and science in general this past year… Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

Winning a Nobel Prize Interrupted His Off-the-Grid Vacation Fred Ramsdell found out about his Nobel Prize nearly 12 hours after it was announced because he was on vacation in the Rockies.

Fred Ramsdell was parked at a campground in Montana on Monday when his wife suddenly started shouting. He first thought that maybe she had seen a grizzly bear. Instead, she had regained cell service and had seen a flood of text messages with the same news. β€œYou just won the Nobel Prize!” she yelled.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

I always say I love my country the way Anthony Bourdain did, not as a benevolent state or one founded in innocence but as vast, beautiful place full of discrete people and cultures such as has rarely been attempted and worth fighting for.

If you think AI can β€œeasily replace” PR and do it better, then you suck at PR.

Academia has a lot of issues, but one thing I’ve always admired about many academic scientists is their lack of shits to give when it comes to being β€œPR-friendly”

Which is precisely why you see academic scientists pushing back against this administration while biotechs twiddle their thumbs.

Need to share this with the entire biotech community lol

Having worked in biotech PR for ~6 years, people are so hesitant to show too much color or personality because β€œVCs won’t take me seriously!”

It’s boring.

Whenever you feel bad for making a mistake at work, just remember - at least you weren’t the person who leaked this memo DIRECTLY TO A REPORTER.
