Our team is growing! We welcome Dr. Jacob Barlow to Foresite Capital. He joins as an associate on our life sciences research team.
Thrilled to introduce our new program – Foresite Fellows! This is a twelve-week part-time paid internship program, 8-10 hours/wk remotely for those enrolled in PhD, MD, MD/MBA, MD/PhD, or postdoc programs. Learn more and apply here: foresitecapital.com/blog/introduci…
I saw @DunhamLab give a great talk on this topic at the last winter q-bio meeting (the last meeting I got to attend in person!) Check it out!
A very compelling demonstration of wearable sensors that use freeze-dried synthetic biological circuits to detect metabolites and pathogens: nature.com/articles/s4158…
My 5 YO daughter right before bed after watching some cartoon featuring dinosaurs: (crying) What if dinosaurs come back to life and eat me! My Wife: That can't happen. Don't worry. My Twitter feed this AM:
Improving detection of genetic influences of complex traits in admixed populations ... Exciting collaborative work from @XWang829, @adamauton, @23andMeResearch, and @harvardmed! Congrats!

Wowza! The YETI library has arrived @BiologyatYork 🤩 Massive thanks to @r_scott_m, Sondra Bahr, Griffin Kim & Zhilian Li for sending us this amazing library: ~6000 genes with inducible transcriptional control! Check out the full potential here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Congrats to my favorite engineer, teacher, husband, and friend @jamolpender. So proud of you. Seems like only yesterday we were hanging out the @PrincetonGrad graduate college just trying to get some air conditioning - now you’re a @CornellEng tenured professor 🥰🥳😊

Reviewers were impressed by letters from my *awesome collaborators* @RichBonneauNYU, David Gresham (@djjgresham) Scott McIsaac (@r_scott_m), @BryanLeland, and Rob Mitra. Super excited to be working with you! #TFNetworks
TAD-like single-cell domain structures exist on both active and inactive X chromosomes and persist under epigenetic perturbations biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Today I learned that our university has a Committee on Committees 🙃
Who’s your favorite image analyst? I’m hiring a BioImage Analyst/ Data Scientist to join our team @calico! Details: calicolabs.com/careers?gh_jid… Reach out if YOU are, or you know SOMEONE who would be a great fit! #ImageAnalysis
I’m excited to share my group’s first preprint! During aging, individuals who remain vigorous for longer also tend to live longer. We ask: do individuals live long *because* they remain vigorous longer? A thread: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We're interested in PAPP-A as an aging target, so we want to understand what it does in different tissues and organs. Unexpectedly, regulating mesenchymal stromal cells is a big part of the answer. Thrilled to see it in print, and congrats to the authors! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ac…
So, after almost 6 years in Boston with @geochurch, I am heading with my family to start a lab in Ottawa, the Canadian capital. I couldn't be happier to be joining @uOttawaCHM. We will be studying and engineering microbes. Lots of different microbes. I can't wait! 🇨🇦
