🇦🇺 SD at NCATS, all about treatments for rare diseases, drug discovery and technologies. Views my own. Etc.
It reminds me of this banger:
"Revised Estimates for the Number of Human and Bacteria Cells in the Body"
- We estimate the total # of bacteria in the 70 kg "reference man" to be 3.8X10^13.
- # of bacteria in the body is actually of the same order as the # of human cells, & total mass is ~0.2 kg.

One of the posters from my group was on a drug discovery strategy for inhibitors of biliverdin reductase - a target relevant for several rare diseases. Our postbac Christa did an amazing job presenting her work - it’s a collab with scientists at Einstein.
