What if we organised research around the future technologies we want to create?
On Monday at 3pm, we'll share how we're organising our research going forward, and the areas we believe could deliver the greatest breakthroughs for humanity.
What makes community a well you can come back to again and again without it running dry?

Meet Jimothy, the internet-famous Seattle raccoon whose distinctive body shape is thought to be caused by a rare congenital condition called short spine syndrome. 🦝
Jimothy's story reminds us how much remains to be discovered about genetics and development. Learn what scientists know about short spine syndrome and how whole genome sequencing helps researchers investigate rare diseases.
