The antigen landscape in cancer is dynamic, maluable, & easily influenced by it's environment. By treating cancer cells with common drugs, we can manipulate both the IDENTITY & DENSITY of epitopes presented, & use those changes to our advantage💪 pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107… @PNASNews

Physicists have used Google's quantum computer to send a signal through a wormhole, a shortcut in space-time first theorized by Einstein and Rosen in 1935. The landmark experiment was published today in Nature. Lots to say about it. Here's my deep dive: quantamagazine.org/physicists-cre…

If you've never seen what a CRL looks like, the FDA published one in full (p.43) in briefing documents before an Ardelyx adcomm tomorrow. (and behold the stark contrast b/t a CRL PR and an actual CRL!) fda.gov/media/163150/d… ir.ardelyx.com/news-releases/…

$REGN's Yancopoulos makes a point."We aren't the ones who are literally selling poison like high fructose corn syrup to children or polluting the earth with plastics." Those companies should help shoulder the cost of health care, he says scrip.pharmaintelligence.informa.com/articles/2022/…

Beautiful story on the discovery of integrins by the fantastic 2022 Lasker awardee Immunologist Tim Springer and cancer biologists Erkki Ruoslahti & Richard Hynes. Incredible how many transformative discoveries were made during my adult life. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

A century ago, height helped to reconcile Mendel’s laws with the inheritance of complex traits. Now, @LoicYengo et al made it the first trait to have all its common genetic effects captured, which predict better than the parental average. This is major. - nature.com/articles/s4158…
