Sharing this #LongCovid story my wife, @megdrosen has been working on since this summer when she visited a @HopkinsMedicine clinic. Nice overview and cool to have a patient's voice in there

WTF. I thought the US @NIH wasn't allowing dangerous #GainOfFunction research on deadly viruses, especially the #COVID virus, but that's exactly what this group at Boston University just did. They created a potentially deadly, novel, coronavirus. Yikes. https://t.co/djyk0aKcuT

Excited our work on assessing genome assembly and pangenome construction for bovine trios is now out in @NatureComms https://t.co/PH5XfR7v9U. Thanks @crdanang , @ZihHuaFang , @BickhartDerek, @ben_d_rosen, @tplsmith for the fruitful collaboration. We found several key results. 1/8

@scicurious @queerscientist self report, no info on time of intake rel to exercise. even if results were sig so many confounding factors.
