I was born and raised on a farm in a small town in Ohio. I've worked to get H-1B visas and green cards for my team members my entire career. There are three simple economic arguments for increasing legal immigration by highly educated workers:

MIT University is offering free online courses. No payment is required. Here are 9 courses you can't afford to miss in 2025:

I thought I was crazy until I found Richard Feynman. Feynman was not only among the most brilliant people on earth, but he transmitted something I've never seen in others. Thread with some lessons from his peculiar way of being:

New year, new beginnings! I am absolutely delighted to share that I have joined @HarvardMed @MGH_RI @BroadInstitute to start my research group in Boston in January 2025! 🎉🧬🔬#NewPI #AcademicTwitter #NextChapter (1/7)

Our new Nature Genetics paper on human segmental duplications (SDs) provides a pangenome perspective of SDs, new potential protein-coding genes, and greater complexity in human variation with implications for disease and evolution. rdcu.be/d5AD9

What’s the most influential course I’ve taken for computational genomics? Hands down: HarvardX’s Data Analysis for Life Sciences by Rafa Irizarry & Mike Love. Here’s why 👇 rafalab.dfci.harvard.edu/pages/harvardx…

LOL. FAFO.

The Geopolitics of Peace - Jeffrey Sachs in the European Parliament youtu.be/VjcMoDFU1xg?si… A rare sensible voice in these crazy times. I hope at least some of our politicians are listening.

This clip from an old CNN interview I did with President Clinton is worth watching again in the context of why President Trump believes he can trust Putin when it comes to personal assurances, and why he may be reluctant to attack him in public:

Now is a critical time for the U.S. to invest deeply in reinvigorating science, engineering, and medical research across the ecosystem. The alternative is decline.

Want a to make genetic maps from sperm/pollen/gametes? Now there is an easy way, based on Hi-C sequencing. Thanks to Richard Durbin and Ed Green for the idea and a great group of co-authors for contributions.

WARNING AND THREAT BY MS. KALLAS ARE DISRESPECTFUL AND I STRONGLY OBJECT TO THEM. The EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas, is warning EU leaders against participating in the May celebrations of Victory Day in Moscow. She claims that such participation will

The saddest thing about this is academic science doesn’t reward software development, and many fields have serious tech debt that’s a huge drag on scientific productivity.

Academic publishing is such a joke. I found an error in my PLoS Genetics paper over a year ago, and asked for a correction immediately in *April 2024*. They just got back to me (now when I don’t have time). And we paid thousands in APCs!

The attacks on foreign researchers at Harvard and elsewhere are appalling. Scientists from other countries have enriched my education, training and research at every single stage of my career, and have become my closest and most cherished colleagues and friends. If there is a

Looks like we've found a torn page from Mother Nature's cookbook on "quick colorful fish salad": science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

It seems that our rulers, here in the 'liberal' West, have homed in on a new way of turning a person into a non-person. Here is a man, Hüseyin Doğru, a German journalist (of Turkish origins, but not a dual citizen) whom the EU authorities have found a novel, immensely cruel,
