15 years ago, a mystery group of ancient humans called the Denisovans was identified - purely from their DNA. This is the first confirmed Denisovan skull: it shows us what their faces were like. @newscientist newscientist.com/article/248482…

I want to tell you a story about computers, creativity and awe! (1/N)🧵 Sydney Brenner once said in 2012 that “nobody has actually read the human genome. I mean, computers have processed the human genome, but we all know computers are stupid.” (This is a talk I gave last week..)

Happy to share our multicenter analysis- CAR T therapy in Richter's transformation shows a 57% response rate and 9.9 months median OS. Efficacy is lower than de novo LBCL and transformed iNHL. Toxicities are similar. #CART #CLL #Lymphoma @Haematologica haematologica.org/haematologica/…

Just found out my friend got murdered in his house together with his wife and all his kids. He was a very good man who helped anybody as a principle, even if you weren't close with whatever you might need. A real Kibbutznik. I am broken. Everybody around me getting similar news.
