Popping back onto X for a moment to share an article from the newsletter I just launched. It's about the long-term effects of cuts to science job and funding, and how that could deprive us of disease cures and diagnostic tests. https://t.co/I3O2565V5Z

I still remember the early days of wearables, and the excitement around them. Cool to see scientists finding ways to clean up their messy data for health use: https://t.co/ktygxnG3fr

Loved seeing the recent study of WGS for diagnosing rare genetic disorders in babies - so much that I wrote it up for Techonomy: https://t.co/hS0Arv0KJa

An invitation to gripe constructively!!
Take advantage of it!

@SanDiegOmics There is something deeply satisfying about cramming coins into uncooperative wrappers and then handing them to a mystified young teller who didn't even know that people still use coins.

[Meredith Salisbury @salisburymw]

Kudos to anyone who actually remembers how to roll change. Even people at the bank look at me funny now when I walk in with rolls of coins.

[Meredith Salisbury @salisburymw]

The thermometer on my deck registers 40 degrees every day, every season, no matter what. People tell me to buy a new one but I think its consistency is comforting.
