I'm watching @theallinpod on YT (business topics only so far) & I agree w/ comments that Starbucks needs to figure out how to reduce the amount of sugar in their beverages while maintaining taste. It's 1 of the factors impacting sales. Look at the amount of sugar: $SBUX Dunkin' needs to do the same

Great talk by @VadimGladyshev! Fun anecdote from the night🧑‍⚕️ While I was away Vadim asked the audience "is @agingdoc1 here?" So when I later commented to the audience on Vadim's point on organ clocks (I brought up @SnyderShot's ageotypes) @AkikoaCom asks me "who is agingdoc?"😁
Thanks to all who joined us for our longevity biotech networking event in Cambridge this Monday! Deep gratitude to @gladyshev_lab for chatting by the fireside with @AkikoaCom of @hevolution_f, our co-host and event sponsor. See you all in a few months!

9) It's up to every entrepreneur or VC to react as they see fit, but wanted to provide a bit of color from a former banker.

We join the scientific community in mourning the loss of Chris Walsh, our friend, colleague, advisor & mentor. As @CarolynBertozzi said, he was “naturally generous & uncommonly wise.” We are so grateful for his immeasurable contributions to Sarafan ChEM-H. hms.harvard.edu/news/christo…
