So excited and proud of my friend @danielxingao start his lab. The Gao Lab is open and ready take off. ✈️✈️
It’s going to be a fantastic place to do amazing science with a brilliant scientist and a great mentor.

[Mo Khalil @MoKhalilLab]

We traveled to DC to talk to Congressional Staffers about the impact of @NIH @NIBIBgov funding. It enables us to develop synthetic biology tools to advance cell & genetic medicines for patients in need. REPOST to deliver the message that SCIENCE saves lives & makes America great!
