Today was my last lecture for Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) #ComputationalBiology: #Genomes, #Networks, #Evolution, #Health. I recorded each and immediately posted online here: youtube.com/playlist?list=โ€ฆ Please do share, and let me know which topics need more explanations, clarifications, and corrections!

Bitter-sweet result. Our paper is out in Nature, but sometimes you're forced to hide your affiliation to make it happen. Viruses encode tRNAs to circumvent tRNA-targeting immune systems, like PARIS. Thanks to David Bikard, Wiedenheft Lab and the teams. nature.com/articles/s4158โ€ฆ
