Supreme gratitude to @ChemistryMIT & Matt Shoulders for hosting me
Special thanks to Tami Lieberman (@conTaminatedsci), Ed Boyden, D. Fox Harrell + many others for support
Let's go break (and make?) some proteins*
*(+ genes + networks + drugs + information +...)
How big is 1 #billion? It’s just about the number of seconds from the time @TomBrady started his 8th grade football season until his retirement from the NFL. #ThankYouTom
@big_data_kane I’m also serious about the amount of discipline it’s taking for me to not take on another project right now. Must. Resist. I would so f’n love this. (Especially to do it with you!)
This is very special. All the past recipients of the @APSphysics Reichert Award (as well as the Reicherts themselves) are all professional heroes of mine. Being officially counted among them is such an honor. (I have in fact daydreamed about this before.) https://t.co/Y3CReVb8Dl
@big_data_kane Same deal for thermodynamics. In fact, I’m not convinced that the general power of evolution and the general power of thermodynamics are unrelated.
