1/ One of the most intriguing enigmas of the #COVID19 pandemic was the sudden and unprecedented outbreak of chilblains that accompanied the early waves of #SARSCoV2 infections. Our new study in Journal of Experimental Medicine uncovers the underlying immunological mechanism   rupress.org/jem/article/22…

On #DNADay we celebrate the seminal 1944 discovery at Rockefeller by Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty that DNA, not protein, is the substance that carries genetic information. This *basic science* research opened the gateway to the modern era of the life sciences.

Here’s a new approach to treating diseases caused by mutated proteins, including the rare but lethal liver cancer fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC). Many diseases are driven by mutations: sometimes a single change, sometimes two proteins fused together. (1/9)
