We're grateful for the incredibly well organized and impactful volunteer experience the Variant Bio team had at @FoodLifeline last week. Hunger does not have to happen.

Those who know me know that creating new therapeutic options for fibrotic disease is one of my passions, and I’m really excited that Variant Bio is taking this genetics-driven approach to understanding why some individuals with fibrosis progress rapidly - and why others don’t.

I could not be more excited to join the team at Variant! Thanks for the warm welcome!

[Variant Bio @VariantBio]

We are thrilled to announce our new VP of Research, Dr. Heather Arnett (@heatheralane)! Heather's 13+ years experience working in genomic drug discovery at Amgen will be invaluable to Variant. Welcome to the team!!

[Heather Arnett @heatheralane]

Such a fantastic resource for the whole field - I'm thrilled to have been a part of this collaboration! Many congratulations to the Kaminski and Rosas labs! #CureIPF

[Naftali Kaminski @KaminskiMed]

1/n The #IPFCellAtlas is finally out! We profiled 312,928 cells from 32 IPF, 28 controls, 18 COPD lungs using @10xGenomics #scRNAseq & identified previously unidentified populations of epithelial & endothelial cells enriched in IPF #CureIPF https://t.co/nrNp2wXLzA

@jonas_schupp Really amazing work, Jonas - congratulations!!

[Dr. Sharona Gordon 🏳️‍🌈 🔬 @ProfSharona]

We have lost Dr. Steven Schwartz to Covid19. Many know Steve as @UW professor of Pathology and director of the Cardiovascular Pathology Training Grant. It’s a sad day

[Naftali Kaminski @KaminskiMed]

This maybe extremely important for herd immunity modeling. Seems that non-human primates do develop protective immunity to #COVID19! https://t.co/wyjSHnRykr

[Naftali Kaminski @KaminskiMed]

Wow! LARGEST EVER report of #PulmonaryFibrosis genetics is out (4124 IPF & 17,182 controls) confirms previously discovered genetic associations (#MUC5BRules) & finds new ones - Kudos @LouiseVwain and team!! #CureIPF #Genetics https://t.co/7utQoT2Yl1

[AI in Biopharma @AIinBiopharma]

@allg00d (@theaaih), Heather A. Arnett (@NuMedii) and Jörg Bentzien (@Alkermes) explore employing #AI to find the translational piece for making drugs effective, validated and useful in humans. #AIApplicationsSummit
