A recent pilot study found that 88% of tested kale was contaminated with PFAS, aka forever chemicals. One sample even had PFOS, a PFAS chemical that was phased out of production in 2002. To make matters worse, the certified organic kale had significantly higher concentrations…
There's a lot of justified concern over whether #fermentation capacity can ever meet the promises of biotech at #scale. It's a real challenge, and one likely to present massive roadblocks to promising new companies, even with immediate action. 🧵
Four graphs I can't stop thinking about in the last year + Pacific Northwest heatwave (berkeleyearth.org/global-tempera…) + Record ocean heat content (link.springer.com/article/10.100…) + Record hot summer (carbonbrief.org/state-of-the-c…) + Greenland ice mass loss exceeds 5000 Gt (columbia.edu/~mhs119/IceShe…)

There have been a number of overview threads on the emerging variant designated as @PangoNetwork lineage B.1.1.529, @nextstrain clade 21K and @WHO Variant of Concern Omicron. I'm not going to attempt to be comprehensive here, but will highlight a few aspects of the data. 1/16

This is big: Selective breeding using corals from the hottest reefs can increase thermal resilience to end of the century projections in a single generation! Congrats Emily on this seminal study. advances.sciencemag.org/content/7/34/e… @SCUniversity @NYUADInstitute @RSRC_KAUST @ScienceAdvances
Interesting analysis by @jsm2334 of the Israeli #covid19 data revealing that intuition about vaccine efficacy has been misguided due to the Yule-Simpson effect (also known as Simpson's paradox). h/t @jbakcoleman covid-datascience.com/post/israeli-d…
The definitional gynmastics required to believe that dolphins aren't fish are staggering.
There have been a lot of stories recently on the search into COVID19/SARSCoV2 origins, but they have been written to tell stories of intrigue or mystery, not to summarize known facts. Thus I thought it might be useful to succinctly summarize what we actually know... 1/n
Very good neutralizing antibody levels for at least 7 months after 2 doses of mRNA vaccine (and likely years) @NEJM today nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
Python is just comments, C and FORTRAN in a trench coat anyway.
Our C to G base editor (CGBE) paper is out today! Exciting technology that changes C:G in the human genome to G:C. Can’t wait to use it on synbio + correcting many disease alleles! nature.com/articles/s4146…
