Check out our recent work on @NatureComms! Greatly appreciate my mentors and collaborators making this possible. We developed epi-Patho-DBiT, a unified platform that enables spatially resolved ATAC -seq or CUT&Tag analyses in FFPE tissues!

This is a numbat. Western Australia’s striped marsupial. Also the namesake of the @KharchenkoLab single-cell CNV tool “Numbat”. Peter Kharchenko is joining us for #HCA2026Asia in Fremantle this November. events.humancellatlas.org/20… #SingleCell #Genomics #HumanCellAtlas

🧬 New paper out in @Nature! We used CRISPR to selectively kill cancer cells based on a single-letter mutation in their RNA. The story I want to highlight: KRAS — one of the most notorious drivers of human cancer. A short thread on what we found 🧵

Australia has a significant opportunity in our gas exports. Other countries have used resource revenues to build sovereign wealth funds that deliver long-term public benefit. A fair return on gas exports could help build a fund that invests in Australia’s future. sbs.com.au/news/article/aust… Join the campaign: ourgas.com.au/

Norway has tried it, and now potentially Canada. Could a public fund be a gas tax solve?

The gas export tax debate has reached a fever pitch — forcing the prime minister to weigh in on its prospects.

I ran for the Senate because I wanted to help make politics about people again - not multinationals, vested interests or party donors. And that's why our campaign to get a 25% gas tax matters. Public pressure has made politicians pay attention and we have to keep it up because it can help make sure in one of the wealthiest counties on earth (and biggest gas exporters in the world), more Australians actually feel the benefit of our gas exports. Head to ourgas.com.au to make your voice heard. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news…
