Still can’t get over the performance by Neo Avdalas. Whatever you’ve heard about him, believe it and then some! Had 33 on 13/23 FG with 6 assists and 5 boards. The Greek superstar powered Virginia Tech to a huge OT win over Providence! He’s extraordinary. https://t.co/GeO5VygcEB

From my biography of Francis Crick, this is in my view the most thrilling moment in all of science and it was all Watson's. Perhaps nobody will ever have a moment as significant as this: There was one more eureka moment to come, and it would be all Watson’s. Crick and Watson

One more comment on Jim Watson. When I was writing Francis Crick's biography, Jim was consistently generous with time and material, even Crick's furious personal attacks on Jim during the row over the writing of the Double Helix. He really did value the truth above all else.

"How then are we to understand Caesar's last words καὶ σὺ τέκνον? Either he said them as part of a larger sentence (whether a quotation or an off-the-cuff remark) or the sentence was self-contained and requires further close reading." A fascinating hunt!

Excited to share our latest work on the factors that determine what genes we find (and don't find!) in GWAS and burden tests. We describe a critical concept that we call *specificity*. Led by Jeff Spence and Hakhamanesh Mostafavi:

How do GWAS and rare variant burden tests rank gene signals? In new work @Nature with Jeff Spence, @jkpritch, and our wonderful coauthors we find the key factors are what we call Specificity, Length, and Luck! 🧬🧪🧵 https://t.co/rNzekB06la
