Wow! Big (and important) headlines to kick off the New Year! Biomanufacturing, biosecurity, and AI featuring the work of Nobel prize winner (and Twist customer 😃) David Baker. We are working with the Nuclear Threat Initiative to enhance transparency for bioscience research & development! Twist Bioscience head of biosecurity, James Diggans, was a recent panelist discussing how to enhance transparency and build trust among diverse parties: https://lnkd.in/gvefmSMM “The next five to ten years will determine a leader in the global bioeconomy.” How the BioMADE is supporting U.S. bioindustrial manufacturing innovation and workforce development. By Douglas Friedman: https://lnkd.in/g7eHMvbF How Hallucinatory A.I. Helps Science Dream Up Big Breakthroughs! David Baker: “How many proteins has his lab designed? ‘Ten million — all brand-new,’ he replied. ‘They don’t occur in nature.’ ” Read the NYT article: https://lnkd.in/emudDuje

Can Proteomics Transform Cancer Prevention? Learn from Dr. Stefánsson #PMWC25 Can we predict and prevent cancer before it strikes? Dr. Kari Stefansson, founder of deCODE genetics, is leading the way. Join us at the Precision Medicine World Conference (PMWC) 2025 where Dr. Stefánsson will be honored, and reveal groundbreaking research on genetic variants shaping cancer risk and prevention. Feb. 7th Track 4 of PMWC 2025, Dr. Stefánsson will present his latest findings in proteomics, examining how protein levels in blood correlate with disease progression and regression. This innovative approach goes beyond treating symptoms to address the molecular roots of diseases, paving the way for tailored therapies. Key Highlights of Dr. Stefánsson’s Research: Critical insights into cancer risk: Genetic variants in genes like BIK and ATG12 increase cancer risk by 90-295%. Protective genetic variants: Loss of PPP1R15A reduces breast cancer risk by 53%, while AURKB loss offers protection against multiple cancer types. Clinical integration of genetic data: Learn how cutting-edge discoveries can transform cancer treatment and prevention strategies. Source: https://lnkd.in/gmtcnNmn Dr. Stefánsson's work not only identifies genetic factors increasing cancer risk but also uncovers variants that reduce it, offering exciting new avenues for therapy and prevention. This session will illuminate how these findings can reshape clinical practices and patient outcomes. Join the discussion at the Santa Clara Convention Center, Feb. 5-7 Shaping the future of precision medicine! https://lnkd.in/gm9nsW_G Also in the Multi-omics and Wearables for Disease Intervention and Prevention track at PMWC 2025 features leaders and pioneers driving innovation in precision medicine: Genomic & Multiomic Intervention and Prevention of Disease: Colorectal Cancer Ed Esplin, Labcorp Genetics Multi-omic Characterization of Cancer Development and Progression Chair: Kathleen C.
