I am grateful to be appointed into the AHA Basic Cardiovascular Sciences (BCVS) Early Career Committee, starting my two-year term today. BCVS was the first conference I ever attended, so it’s both surreal and exciting to serve in this new role. Thank you for your support Elizabeth McNally Rong Tian, MD PhD Joseph C Wu, MD, PhD!

I broadly agree with this post, which is very good. (And I share Ruxandra Teslo 🧬's ambivalence about our progress over the past 50 years.) That said, wet lab experiments themselves are IMO a bigger bottleneck than trials. (This is why Arc Institute is working on a virtual cell.)
