Nobel for miRNAs and another for the worm! Victor and Candy’s paper cloning lin-4 is my all time favorite (the Ruvkun paper is also incredible). The foresight in the discussion is 🤯. This could not have gone to a better scientist and person
BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

Wharton professor here! Here are the Penn Wharton Budget Model estimates: — Harris’ proposal increases the deficit by $1.2 trillion, with low- and middle income households benefiting disproportionately. — Trump’s proposal increases the deficit by $5.8 trillion. Details below 👇
Our latest briefs analyze the policy proposals of the Kamala Harris and Donald Trump campaigns for their economic, budgetary, and distributional effects over the next 10 and 30 years. budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.ed… budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.ed…

Excited to have this published! We identify a subset of microRNAs acquired by sperm from the epididymal epithelium that regulate gene expression in preimplantation embryos > cell.com/cell-reports/fullte… Huge thanks to @ColinConine for the support and guidance during this project

Replying to @CellReports
Epididymal miRNAs are crucial for embryonic gene expression, highlighting sperm's role in non-genetic inheritance. This research opens avenues for understanding paternal influences on offspring health, potentially transforming reproductive biotech and epigenetic therapies.

.@JDVance is the biggest chamaleon in the history of humanity….when I met first him his message was of being inclusive and pragmatic and has become a divider and and a hater…he has no right to talk about anyone else..he has to look himself in the mirror first and read his book.

BASH: Do you believe Kamala Harris is Black? JD VANCE: I believe Kamala Harris is whatever she says she is, but I believe, importantly, that President Trump is right that she's a chameleon
