1/3 #StephenAnderson #AharonFreud reveal digital component to cell differentiation mediated by binary promoter switches in lineage-determining TFs (AHR, GAT3, RORC). Vs 6% of hu genes, 33% of hu TFs possess stable divergent transcripts (potential binary switches) in TFs.

[Ed Yong is not here @edyong209]

The origin of this story is one of my colleagues asked for an immunity explainer, and I said, "GOD NO, have you any idea how complicated immunology is, that would kill me," but then I realized that I am already dead inside, and wrote the piece.

Stark facts in this email I just received regarding the full shut-down at my day job @HarvardMed: “The outbreak of COVID-19 is the single most threatening pandemic to arise in the last century.” We will get through this together, and we must take this advice seriously.

Kudos to Ohio! Still have many friends and family there. Great and reassuring article. A real example of science-informed political leadership

Very inspiring article by Luis Batista about pursuing a career in research while managing the challenges presented by an unexpected epilepsy diagnosis. Adapt and overcome! @WUSTLdbbs
