I am grateful to share that the latest research paper from the lab is now published in RNA. This work was a wonderful collaboration with Francesca Massi’s lab. Please join me in congratulating co-first authors Asli Ertekin and Sharon Noronha.

Thanks Aaron!

I gave a public educational seminar on the history of vaccines yesterday sponsored by @gain-indivisible.bsky.social. I encourage all scientists to give public educational seminars a shot. You’ll learn something and you will be surprised (in a good way) by the people you meet.

My son (the wizard), myself, and @repmcgovern.bsky.social at the #Worcester #NoKings rally put on by @gain-indivisible.bsky.social. It was a glorious day to fight the power with my people. Representative McGovern is my guy, 100%. He shows up and he tells it like it is.

Help protect our hard-working federal employees at the NIH

I am not ok with this

Copies of "Everyday RNA" are arriving in the US. I ordered 30 copies—they arrived at my house yesterday. If you haven't pre-ordered a copy, your best bet is to order directly from World Scientific Press . The online retailers won't get them until later.

Amazon Rankings:
#1 New Release in Biotechnology (#3 overall)
#2 New Release in Medical Research (#25 overall)
#3 New Release in Genetics (#10 overall)
I have been assured by the publisher that it will be available in the first week of October.

Thank you all for pre-ordering!

Why a rare blood cancer has become a testing ground for cancer drug innovation A model of innovation

In 2013, my father lost his life to multiple myeloma. Now, a variety of new treatment options are extending myeloma patient lives for years if not decades. It's been amazing to watch. Support the the NIH, fight back against RFK, and protect academic research.

Revisionism in the Wake of Covid A dialogue confronting the premise of revisionist efforts to diminish the pandemic's severity and dismantle public health institutions.

There’s a book from political scientists Macedo and Lee that claims the COVID-19 pandemic was not as much of a threat to public health as was supposed, calling into question the role of expertise.

Here, an excellent corrective to that erroneous position:

Newsweek is reporting the RFK plans an outright ban on mRNA vaccines in the United States within a few months. That's a huge mistake. Please, speak out against those who would derail the most promising technology to curb virus spread since Charles Maitland and cow pox.

Thanks Aaron! I hope you enjoy it!

I did a thing. I wrote a textbook about #RNA. I wrote it so that those without formal science training could understand what RNA is and how it is used in medicine. It releases in the US and Europe on September 8th. www.worldscientific.com/worldscibook...

Horrible news!

Very timely review for those of you who have been following all of the recent developments in this area... also @cp-trendsbiochem.bsky.social why can't we share via bsky directly from the article???

Sounds like another nazi to me.

Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody.

We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza.

Together we are standing up for those with no voice.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Grateful to share a microphone and a stage with one of the very best Congresspersons in the nation, @repmcgovern.bsky.social! This was at the #Worcester #NoKings rally. 2000+ energized attendees at the rally behind city hall. #GAIN

Just get rid of this guy already. I'm sick of his face.

Tomorrow we stand together. We stand for democracy. We stand for basic human decency. We stand so that our great Republic will not fall.

We need you. We need ALL of you. Stand with us. Together we are Indivisible. Together we will have liberty and justice for all
