New paper out! Led by @Yingjie_life and @isaacpei. We tried to figure out how BRCA-related cancers compensate from a proliferative deficit induced by HRD. See great tweetorial below on what we found 👇👇
1/9 Excited to share our latest publication! Check out our paper: “Large-scale copy number alterations are enriched for synthetic viability in BRCA1/BRCA2 tumors” #Cancer #BRCA #CopyNumberAlterations #GenomeMedicine

Wow! Change is coming...
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

Watching the discussion on Deepseek from open-source tech people -- as an academic in medicine is depressing. Hope for an open future for AGI. Once, Banting gave away insulin for humanity. Salk refused to patent the polio vaccine. What do we live in? An era where "non-profit" "academic" medical centers try to monetize every single thing possible. The mission is only money. :-( .

@srikosuri @GenomeNathan the idea that one of these theories was more "racist" than the other was a complete joke. One of the theories though would not be great for scientists.....

@srikosuri @GenomeNathan Without relitigating which is more likely -- do you think there is strong enough evidence to suggest one theory is a slam dunk -- and proponents of the other theory are flat-earthers? My take on vibes change is with norms change and loss of trust... here we are!

If you haven’t tried deepseek to read its thinking steps (not shown in openai) — you absolutely should.
I find DeepSeek's thinking output more fascinating than its actual output
