From molecular speciation of mosquitoes by PCR, to multiplexed malaria amplicon sequencing to inform public health policy, we love how our “lab in a suitcase” equipped with #BentoLab and ONT #MinION enables us to bring our science to the field, to the communities at greatest risk for malaria.

William Young, a Reagan-appointed judge who made headlines this week, is profiled in the NYT. With Trump's "maximalist approach to power, Young often enters as a veteran, forecasting possible legal minefields and urging the lawyers involved to come prepared." Great piece by @zjmontague.bsky.social
