“The FDA official responded, “You all know that as background, I’m a professor and I’m a practicing [hematology-oncology] doctor. I do miss my clinic and I miss teaching, and I miss being able to run my podcast and speak freely.” statnews.com/2026/03/06/fda-…

For Alzheimer's disease, it's no longer a debate of amyloid (Aβ) versus tau. They are interactive drivers and this new, optimistic review maps out a path towards disease-halting therapies @CellCellPress cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

Excited to share our new work on immune aging! We explored whether the liver could serve as a temporary "factory" to produce immune factors that decline with aging, potentially helping to rejuvenate aged immunity. @mircoscopy.

I’m the former head of Pfizer R&D. I’m very worried about biopharma’s future

The New York Times once called John Lamattina, then Pfizer head of R&D, “Dr. Optimistic.” He’s not so optimistic now.

“For decades, the U.S. has been the pinnacle of global science. Now experts fear it may have lost some of its luster, and that budding international researchers won’t… take their next career step in the U.S.” Not MAGA or MAHA.

$SGMO. Recalled $PFE handed $ROIV biotech gift of year in 2023, think they might do it again in 2025, this time for $SGMO. If both Fabry and HemoA deals go through for $SGMO, it could be a $10 stock.
