Regeneron is the best possible home for 23andme. Regeneron has always been the non-consumer 23andMe, sequencing 1M exomes and finding interesting drug targets from it. For founders building in consumer testing there some easy learnings looking at 23andme. - if you're a diagnostic, you need repeat customers - you need to get paired test <> phenotype for the data to be massively valuable (Tempus a good case of this) - product shipping and creativity is paramount

Regeneron has been the most innovative pharma, time over time, in adopting new genomic technologies, from early genetics, single cell, and even spatial biology. Can't think of a better home for 23andMe

Was asked abt acq of @23andMe by @regeneron: You’d be hard pressed to find better home for these data, or an org more likely than $REGN to both respect the privacy+security issues AND maximize likelihood the knowledge will be used to generate insight+novel therapeutics… @jgreid

#ASHG23 RGC-ME is live!
We’re excited to share that the RGC-ME Browser is live! The RGC-ME Browser offers allele frequencies, ancestry estimates, constraint metrics, and transcript annotations based upon a catalog of human protein-coding variations from the exome data of ~1M individuals.

Since our inception, large-scale human genome sequencing has fueled our discovery, and needless to say, we’ve been busy. As we count down to a decade of team RGC, join us in reflecting on our sequencing milestones that helped us amass the world’s most diverse genetic database. 🌎

I know that too many people in the LGBTQI+ community are worried and afraid about their future and their safety. I want to send a message to the entire community – especially to transgender children. You are loved. You are heard. You are understood. You belong.

“What is unequal and has always been unequal and is still unequal about Rosalind Franklin is the credit that she didn’t get in the aftermath of the discovery,” one historian said. nyti.ms/3oXKU3r
