@BushmanMao @catspaw55 @Martina @USAFencing So wait. Are you agreeing with me or disagreeing with me? It's nonsense that height is an unfair advantage in fencing (you agree with me), or nonsense that the main advantage men have is because of being taller on average (you disagree with me)?

@kristiinmarino I think I reached her through Nancy Carbone at #FriendsOfFirefighters. Very sorry for the need to contact your family.

[Howard Cash @GeneCodesHoward]

@kristiinmarino Kristin, I sent a kind of important message to you mom over facebook. Could you ask her to look for a DM from me? This isn't a scam.

A new week. A new month. And the start of a new beginning here at @WHOSTP.

We are excited to officially welcome Dr. Arati Prabhakar as our new Director! 🎉

Today’s #NobelPrize winner Svante Pääbo is a true authority on the study of ancient DNA. He was the first to successfully clone DNA from a mummy, and in 2009, he completed sequencing of the Neanderthal genome (in collaboration with Jim Mullikin @genome_gov!).

[Ewan Birney @ewanbirney]

Just great to see Svante winning the Nobel Prize. Well deserved and people forget how radical it was to think that one could sequence ancient DNA up to the whole level of genomes - consequences in understanding human evolution has been huge.

Today is #WrongfulConvictionDay. Since 1989, more than 3,200 people have been exonerated in the U.S. Collectively, these individuals spent 27,200+ years in prison for crimes they didn't commit.

[New England Innocence Project @NEInnocence]

Jabir Pope & Albert Brown - who together spent 76 years incarcerated - serenaded the crowd with the soulful anthem they wrote at MCI-Norfolk, "I cry freedom." On #WrongfulConvictionDay, we too cry for freedom for so many. Let's bring them home.

Good discussion with Ambassador Markarova and First Lady Zalenska on providing support in Ukraine.

@kristinkloc What a beauty. And talented, too. And nice. Not fair.

@NoraKAli True. I've never watched one of your tictocs, so, I'm glad you posted this. Keep them coming.

[Howard Cash @GeneCodesHoward]

@BeschlossDC A professional diplomat might think not to smile for the camera in this situation. A more experienced foreign leader (I'm not implying a *better* one) might have thought not to announce this visit ahead of time and create extra security risks.

@IsobelYeung Would like to see if I can interest you in a story. Have an office I can contact?
