Finally! Rapid antigen tests are here and available to the public. Why did it took so long?!? Still too expensive. Switzerland is now giving 5 per inhabitant/month (Roche) and buying extra is super cheap. Thanks @michaelmina_lab #StopTheSpread

Extremely Cheap, Simple and Fast testing for #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 developed at @harvardmed. Validated clinically. What are we waiting for? FYI @ashishkjha @Kotlikoff @j_g_allen @michaelmina_lab @HarvardChanSPH @BostonSchools @BrooklinePublic @marty_walsh @MassGovernor

You may have been hearing a lot about LAMP as a way to detect the covid19 virus, but here's our contribution! https://t.co/wwB9SDklPP

RT-LAMP test for #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 from Brian Rabe and Connie Cepko: 30 min, requires a 65 °C bath (does not require a PCR machine or other specialized equipment), can detect 1 viral RNA copy per µL, works on saliva, readout is color change.

Did you know flatworms can lose their eyes and regrow them in a few days? A study led by the Reddien lab’s Lucila Scimone and @KutayDeniz identifies a new cell type that serves as a guidepost to help route axons from the eyes to the brain: https://t.co/g7wiWeJ4WR

If you're in molecular biology lab, you're probably very familiar with Gibson Assembly. We found that a very small change can make the method even more robust! We also provide a protocol to make the most expensive component yourself, it's pretty fun! https://t.co/Fy1H92kTmI
