So sad to learn out the passing of Peer Bork. I collaborated with his group at EMBL in the mid 2000’s. He leaves a lasting imprint on the fields of bioinformatics, metagenomics, and computational biology, and an enduring spirit of open, curiosity-driven exploration.

An incredibly emotional day for all of us at OHSU Knight Cancer Institute. Phil & Penny Knight gave a transformative $2 billion gift to ensure that Oregonians facing a cancer diagnosis receive the best care & the best possible outcome. The fight against cancer is and will always be personal. 🎗️
