A new study reveals 1,700+ protein-like molecules hiding in the human genome — expanding what we thought we knew about the proteome.
These newly identified “peptideins” could play roles in cancer, immunotherapy, and disease.

Nobel laureate Mary Brunkow will be the featured speaker at Saturday's 151st commencement. She's a scientist, not a tech executive — and unlike other graduation speakers this season, she's not plannin...
Emerging evidence links the gut microbiome to sleep quality, yet measuring sleep at scale remains challenging. Commercial wearables, such as Fitbit, capture objective sleep and activity data in natura...
It was great to visit @isbscience.org to tour their labs, hear about their groundbreaking work, and recognize Mary Brunkow’s achievement of the Nobel Prize!
