Or, if you build a home lab and then a real lab @hudsonalpha, this monthly amount becomes the grand total. Happy biotech bootstrapping! – at Alabama, USA
How much does it really cost to start a biotech company? @LSantollani did all the hard work to find out!

Thanks Damian! And thanks also to .@tudaz2!
Congratulations @rcvaught on this new paper; revealing sex-specific mito-nuclear interactions shaping lifespan of fruit flies. A collaboration with the @tudaz2 lab. Check it out @ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… #DowlingLab, @RalphDobler
We find sex-specific cyto-nuclear interactions affecting lifespan! Read about our recent work via .@ESEB_org here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… .@RalphDobler .@DK_Dowling
