Introducing FirstLook Lung Test, an accessible & accurate way to enhance #lungcancerscreening through a routine blood test. FirstLook will soon be available with select US health systems through our Early Experience Program. Learn more: delfidiagnostics.com/our-products/ #lungcancerdetection

The 14th International Workshop on Advanced Genomics – a meeting celebrating the 20th anniversary of the completion of the Human Genome Project – concluded as energetically as it started. In short, Day 3 in Tokyo did not disappoint!!!

Thrilled to announce that our chromosome scale #genome assembly of the ruby-throated #hummingbird is published! genome.cshlp.org/cgi/content/lo…

Abortion, which is lifesaving in cases of miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, etc, will now be illegal in many states & even criminal in some & women will die as a result of this decision. So don't tell me you're pro-life.

The Supreme Court just overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. This is devastating, an absolute national tragedy. But know that this isn't the end of this fight, that activists and organizers are diligently working to continue access to safe abortion. A thread:

Roe. Miranda. Gun control. Church and State. All dismantled in a single week. The single worst week for civil rights and liberties in decades.

I couldn’t help but ‘photobomb’ this group of key contributors to the #T2T Consortium at #ABGT22 , appropriately celebrating their publications reporting the first truly complete sequence of a human genome! This small group represents the larger group of true genomics heroes!
