Ever heard of Palindromic DNA? Check this out! I made this with @TaylorLabGroup from the @MilnerCentre

the conversation: https://t.co/RWglZKIBNs I fact checked what I could about the specifics in Tennessee. What I couldn't find online I can confirm (fuzzily) from conversations with people at the museum 20 years ago.

“What Colossal Biosciences are doing is super interesting… but they just exaggerate everything.” "They're doing this to manipulate funders and get money." “Michael Levin's got a definition of intelligence that tapwater fits.” Conversation with @StatedClearly is live.
