Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, itΒ isΒ hereby ordered: Section 1.

Giving infectious disease research a break, as promised by the MAHA agenda.

Let's break down what exactly this Executive Order is *really* saying.

Fortunately, I speak fluent anti-vax grifterese & can translate.

Gene editing technology began by people studying salt marshes. Ozempic began by folks studying the venom of Gila Monsters. Support for basic science has empowered us to understand our world. Tethering it to applications health has transformed and saved countless lives.

So excited to share our first paper from my PhD! Chasing this question was so rewarding; I hope that comes across in the writing. Thank you @denagoldblatt.bsky.social, @cbellegarda.bsky.social, Cheryl, and Başak for being wonderful teammates and @schoppik.bsky.social for the excellent bluetorial πŸ€“

Beautifully written work led by an incredible former undergrad in my PhD lab! Check it out if you're curious about how sensorimotor circuits assemble πŸ’«

Happy to share my 2nd PhD paper! We use CRISPR, calcium imaging & sequencing approaches to (1) overturn a decades-old model for how a balance circuit develops and (2) redefine the role of motor neurons in circuit assembly. 1/n
