We need to simplify the engineering so that we can complicate the biology #NAMs #MPS #OrganChips

Immunologist’s “immunocompetent”: innate sensors fire, APC relay, T-cells boom, B-cells class-switch, antibodies refine, memory locks in. Bioengineer: sprinkled monocytes on a chip. #NotTheSameThing

New #bioRxiv preprint with @dougbrubaker.bsky.social ! We explored T cell diversity & clonal dynamics across the human gut-liver-blood axis using single-cell RNA & TCR sequencing of matched samples. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #immunology #Tcells #scRNAseq

Some 12AM thoughts on technological convergence and unpredictability of biothreats

Someone needs to go to prison for this…

A+ for honesty. What is the weirdest one you got? I had once two people apply as a team. Among others, their joint CV listed two pages of groundbreaking ideas. Like “Reviving patients with brain death at any stage and returning patients to their normal state as before brain death”

Someone applied for a position in my lab . The cover letter said:”I am particularly drawn to this opportunity [specific aspects of the lab ,e.g., its focus in chromatin dynamics or translational applications]. I am confident that my technical expertise aligns well with the goals of your team.”

I would call this Culinary Taoism: The wine is the pairing.

Is there a wine that innately comes to mind when thinking of duck?

Today I grow human organs and mango.

Advice to younglings that are not sure what to study but lean towards bio/med: Give #agriculture a shot. You will learn what #nature is and how #life works and from there you can let your curiousity lead you. It worked for me. One of the best decisions easy.

Concepts of implanting hardware will be a obsolete in 20-30 years tops.

I was about to send an email to an NIA program director about a R01 grant proposal on dementia but then I forgot.
