Researchers have homed in on several common genes that may explain why some people become severely ill from covid-19--and that point to possible treatments @kennethbaillie @covid19_hgi https://t.co/lWGYDVrDrq

Just before covid stopped travel, I met with Costa Rica's rising stars in tropical biology who are coming home to study their country's rich biodiversity. @AndreaGVincent #UCR @ICFJKnight @PuntoyAparte_1 #ICFJ @ICFJ #UCR https://t.co/AUVM4xBBjc

Good news for AIDS community: Moderna will no longer exclude HIV positive people from its large covid-19 vaccine study. But that's just one company's trial. https://t.co/FIdQktWQlv

NIH says its All of Us health study is on track to recruit 1 million volunteers in 5-6 years. The bigger worry: keeping them from dropping out. #AllofUs, @allofusresearch https://t.co/f8den8gIBO

Does it matter that 19% of sample so far is from Arizona (2% of US pop) and 59% are women? #AllOfUS

#allofus is also well-positioned to examine whether differences in health outcomes reflect variable pathogenesis of disease X by group, or if they are largely driven by failings of the health care system in these communities. The policy implications of this would be massive.

Saw that study finding men get $40,000 more for their first NIH grant? We took a closer look. https://t.co/wmR2eNLvk0

NIH has corrected earlier figure--only 16 meetings rescheduled. NIDCD meetings did or will occur on schedule.
