Moderate consumption of caffeinated coffee or tea was linked to reduced #dementia risk and modest improvements in cognitive outcomes; no benefit was seen for decaffeinated coffee in an observational study of US adults.

"About a quarter of the approximately 13,600 drug-target pairs in the current preclinical and clinical R&D pipeline are concentrated around just 38 unique biological targets." - LEK. This is astonishing & a huge misappropriation of risk by investors.

Year 2 of the @BioscienceLA-@Wavemaker360 #TechWeek collaboration is “flipping the script” with @CaminoMobility’s Duncan Orrell-Jones putting some of my favorite investors on the hot seat. From Wavemaker360 to @CedarsSinai to @OCVPartners, we have a VC dream team here. #LongLA – at Culver City, CA

To be clear: I'm not criticizing OpenAI's work nor their claims.
I'm trying to correct a *perception* by the public & the media who see chatGPT as this incredibly new, innovative, & unique technological breakthrough that is far ahead of everyone else.
It's just not.
Thrilled to participate in the #Lifesummit22 panel dedicated to a bullish area for me of personalized medicine. hopin.com/events/ai-la-life-…

A bit late! CDC messaging on Covid has been 💩. How do they not have competent public health experts on staff that can help provide clear steps and guidance to people?? cnn.com/2022/01/07/politics/…

Really nice to see the 2021 FDA approvals by modality. The diversity is impressive: ASOs, siRNAs, peptides, bi-specifics, ADCs, cell therapies, mRNA, radioligands, allosteric & orthosteric inhibitors, and more!

Doing better than LA drivers too
I am excited to share a new study led by Shachar Givon & @MatanSamina w/ Ohad Ben Shahar: Goldfish can learn to navigate a small robotic vehicle on land. We trained goldfish to drive a wheeled platform that reacts to the fish’s movement (authors.elsevier.com/a/1eEnu…).
Love getting to invest across modalities in healthcare! One solution or approach will not fix all.
