I think it's curious that with dog ownership, the biggest injury potential stems from the dog being a major trip hazard. Not me running into things because I stumbled over my dog yet again...

You just can not think about experiments or statistical calculations when you have to navigate the Tokyo Metro system to find your hotel. I probably need more of that in my life ๐

PhIP-Seq uncovers marked heterogeneity in Acute Rheumatic Fever Autoantibodies.
ARF is a serious sequela of Strep A infection. While autoantibodies are known to drive pathogenesis, the specific human protein targets remain unclear.

Unfortunately, that is not entirely true ๐ Some researchers in other countries working on mRNA vaccines are also supported through US funding and collaborations with US companies (e.g. Moderna). We're all unimpressed by the constant uncertainty ๐
