Our new Comment is out today in @natrevbioeng. mRNA could treat many more diseases than it currently does, but we don’t have a way to get it to most of the cells where it’s needed. We explain why a cell will be the next transformative delivery vehicle⬇️

Want to sequence RNA from cells without killing them or deliver RNA programs from cell to cell? Today in Cell, we present RNA exporters, which package and secrete cellular RNA, for non-destructively monitoring cell dynamics by sequencing and delivering RNA authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…

Thoughtful perspective on what the next century holds in biology. Completely agree that we need to invent better measurement tools and make experiments faster and cheaper.

How can we condense 50-100 years of biological progress into 5-10 years? I wrote a response to @DarioAmodei's essay, "Machines of Loving Grace." Most bottlenecks slowing biology today, I argue, are biophysical rather than computational. LEVERS FOR BIOLOGICAL PROGRESS🔻

Genomes encode biological complexity, which is determined by combinations of DNA mutations across millions of bases In new @arcinstitute work, we report the discovery and engineering of the first programmable DNA recombinases capable of megabase-scale human genome rearrangement
