This story about the race to decode the human genome 🧬 from @WHYYThePulse @lizxtung feels like it could be a Hollywood movie. I'd cast @OrvilleIV as a young Francis Collins because they have the same voice! Now, who would be "biology’s bad boy" ? https://t.co/yJLLgkQLRI

"Maybe the key is to stop thinking of happiness as a destination we can reach, and more like a compass — a tool among other tools to help us plot our course." Love this line from @lizxtung on this week's episode @WHYYThePulse https://t.co/dQ6fdqI1fL

Reflecting on #USWNT 2019 success @ChristenPress told @HannaRosin "We had to win the World Cup to win equal pay, but did we need the fight for equal pay to win the World Cup?" Now in 2023, what's the external motivation that can bring this team together? https://t.co/6mlRPt0nBT

[Lindsay Lazarski @llazarski]

So far @USWNT has the exact same record in this World Cup as @USMNT in Qatar ... coming out of group stage only winning 1 game. Let's hope for a better result in knockout stage. Need more 🔥 power on offense! Move Julie Ertz and Crystal Dunn to midfield 🙏 #USWNT #WorldCup2023

[Reveal @reveal]

1/ At the height of the AIDS epidemic in the early 1990s, a Black doctor from Tulsa, Oklahoma, created a serum from goat blood that he believed could cure AIDS.

He brought his research to the FDA, but it failed to win approval. https://t.co/xdLj2lBqWE

[The Pulse @WHYYThePulse]

This week's episode of @reveal takes a deep dive into our podcast with @localtrancefm called Serum, a series about a potential cure for AIDS.

Free to read: What happened when Qatar World Cup security detained me for 25 minutes for wearing a t-shirt supporting LGBTQ rights, forcibly took my phone and angrily demanded that I remove my t-shirt to enter the stadium. (I refused.) Story: https://t.co/JKpXXETDkH

For next week's episode of @WHYYThePulse :
What are some (silly) things you are afraid of?
I mean, obviously, there is lots of terrible stuff to fear, but I'm additionally afraid of slow zombie mice that were poisoned by my neighbors. And many other things

[Lindsay Lazarski @llazarski]

The proof was Precious, the 7yr old patient Davis treated w/ his serum and who for many proved it worked. In the final episode of @serumpodcast, we hear from Precious herself and her story is not what you expect 🎧 Grab the tissues https://t.co/LbIM2trUby

[Lindsay Lazarski @llazarski]

Who were the patients who took Dr. Davis’ serum? Meet Tommy Farnsworth, the cowboy, from Oklahoma. Catch up on the latest episodes of @serumpodcast and buckle up for the wild ride ahead https://t.co/LbIM2trmm0

In 1952 Anne Holten Jensen was a #medicalstudent and hand-ventilated #polio patients at the Blegdam hospital for hours at a time, saving their lives. She became an #anesthesiologist, and sadly died just a few months ago. #medhero #medhistory

A cure may still be a long ways away but here is one enduring victory from the ice bucket challenge that has made an impact on those living with ALS today

[The Pulse @WHYYThePulse]

Do you remember the ice bucket challenge in 2014? Pour a bucket of ice water over your head or donate $100 to an ALS organization.

Here's what happened to the millions of dollars that were raised.

The 1950s polio outbreak birthed the modern Intensive Care Unit—the idea of providing critical care to the sickest patients.

On this episode, we explore the roots of intensive care, what makes the unit unique and how it endured the pandemic.

This week on Serum: a mom tells @grant_m_hill she snuck up this very staircase in the middle of a busy doctor's office to get her hands on an unapproved treatment for her daughter. [The staircase served as inspiration for our artist, @michaeldandley] https://t.co/SUIwKooxqf
