Let’s see if we can evade the hashtag spammers. @EricTopol has asked us to use #FOGM2014 for the genomic meeting tweets

Next up: Nir Barzilai on “How to die young at a very old age?” https://www.einstein.yu.edu/faculty/484/nir-barzilai/ #FOGM2014

If we don’t slow aging, what’s the point of curing one disease—we’ll just get another.—Nir Barzilai #FOGM2014

Ok: I’ve gathered 100 responses to “liquid biopsy—creepy or not?” on Twitter & FB 67% creepy, 33% not. #FOGM2014

Medical cost during last 2 years of life for someone who dies 100+yrs is a third than someone who dies 60-70 yrs—Nir Barziai #FOGM2014

Plenty of centenarians smoke like chimneys—Barzilai #FOGM2014
November 24, 2024 at 5:35 AM
Barzilai looks for “killing genes”—variants that disappear in older cohorts—& “longevity genes” that increase. #FOGM2014

Less growth factor may may lead to longevity—Nir Barzalai #FOGM2014
November 24, 2024 at 5:35 AM
Correction: @hackingdata isn’t just doing genomics—collecting lots of data from Mount Sinai patients. #FOGM2014

Some longevity genes may actually be buffering killing genes in centenarians #FOGM2014

The struggle to diagnose rare & unknown genetic disorders is dubbed the “diagnostic odyssey.” #FOGM2014

Rare diseases, taken together, affect 5-10% of population—more than cancer.—@ATorkamani #FOGM2014

Biologists can be pretty dumb with their data, says @hackingdata #FOGM2014

Now @specterm is up to talk about the microbiome #FOGM2014 Here’s his New Yorker feature on the topic: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2012/10/22/121022fa_fact_specter
Germs Are Us
Bacteria make us sick. Do they also keep us alive?
