Had a great time delivering these workshops and getting to meet so many wonderful people along the way! The surprise birthday cake really was the icing on top ❤️

1/ Ever wonder about differences between human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) and embryonic stem cells (hESC)? Check out our work in @Nature on hiPSC epigenome dynamics and a new reprogramming method which more fully erases hiPSC epigenetic memory https://t.co/iISspLmtOZ

One of the reasons tuberculosis continues to infect and kill more people is because you refuse to allow the widespread distribution of affordable bedaquiline, which is essential to stopping the spread of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and curing those infected by it.
It takes some gall to wonder aloud what the problem is when you know that you are the problem. You've had 20 years of a bedaquiline monopoly. You've made your money. ENOUGH.

On the debate re “details” of the Voice:

When the public were asked to vote on SSM, it was on the principle of equal marriage, not specifics of a bill.

The public voted for marriage equality *before* the legislative process amending the Marriage Act.

Decided to work from home while I housesit this week, couldn't miss the opportunity to work with a view like this in the beautiful summer weather ☀️

What an incredible week of presentations and conversations with bioinformaticians across Australia (and overseas) at the #abacbs22 conference. Loved meeting so many new people and of course coming home with some conference swag!

[Holly Massacci @hollymassacci]

@hydra_hamster It is! Already have a bunch of recipes bookmarked to try 😁 Would also recommend First Nations Food Companion, bought it as a gift so still gotta source my own copy but looked amazing!

Delicious spread from Mabu Mabu for our Indigenous Genomics SIG yesterday 😍 Mabu Mabu is a Torres Strait Islander-run catering business celebrating Indigenous ingredients. Picked up their book in the afternoon too!
