Winding down last night, I was doing some research into the background of how Stanford gets power, in the context of the continuing outage. It's a complex thing.

@arjunrajlab Agreed. A half-assed in vivo experiment added onto a completed study to satisfy a reviewer isn't going to be very informative either way. Reminded of @kaelin_lab's "Publish houses of brick, not mansions of straw." https://t.co/FfUw94PuZu

I've polled my students for several years about the false "Mendelian" traits that their high school biology teachers used as examples. There are SO MANY teacher resources that have false information about human traits. Earlobes, widow's peak, tongue rolling, none are Mendelian.

⚠️ WARNING: this video is hard to watch. Another shocking attack in Oakland’s Chinatown. 8th and Harrison Streets. Outside the Asian Resource Center.

20+ robbery/assault incidents in the neighborhood according to the Chinatown Chamber president.

BREAKING: With the winter move-in process barely underway, Stanford reported Friday afternoon that 43 students had tested positive since Saturday, nearly quadruple the highest weekly total among students so far.

Proud to share our paper “Vaginal Transmission of Cancer from Mothers with Cervical Cancer to Infants” published in NEJM today! The boy’s lung tumor delivered from his mother at the birth responded to PD-1 therapy. https://t.co/0SKm8GNYWd
