BREAKING: The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi "for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance" Stay tuned for more. #NobelPrize

My friend Naftali Kaminski is an Israeli physician, a professor at Yale, and the child of Holocaust survivors. For me he is a model of absorbing his parents' stories intensely, looking the horror of the 20th century in the eyes, and drawing the lesson of radical empathy for the suffering of others.

🧠 The human brain ages less than thought and in layers – at least in the area of the cortex responsible for the sense of touch. See study @natneuro.nature.com by @estherkuehn.bsky.social and colleagues at DZNE, @hih-tuebingen.bsky.social and @uni-magdeburg.de: 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A timely, argument on why we still animal research now when AI can write songs:

While I’m a big fan of new technologies that help us study human biology…there’s still no replacement for animal research! See my article in Gen News. www.genengnews.com/topics/trans...
