I've been thinking a lot about how DNA does and does not define our identities. That's why I wanted to write about the Trans Doe Task Force, a volunteer group that recognizes the limits of using genetic genealogy to find someone's identity

In case you're frustrated with tracking biological material, check out @AduroSysLIMS . If I had a dime for every time someone asked me how to make this process painless, I'd be retired already :)

Trust your favorite liquid biopsy assay? Our @DanaFarber @DCcloudy data comparing 2 hybrid capture plasma NGS assays finds what many suspected - targetable fusions are being missed. Fortunately, assays are constantly improving, as they should be! doi.org/10.1016/j.lungcan.20…
