NEW: 14 amicus briefs opposing the FTC's case against Illumina are just the latest in a barrage of attacks on agency leadership, in-house adjudication and merger review. Filers: 34 Republicans in Congress, 5 Dems, a dozen state AGs, advocacy orgs + more. news.bloomberglaw.com/antitr…

After peaking last night at about 7:00pm, air quality has improved some in NYC. But it is still above the level considered "unhealthy". And conditions are expected to deteriorate again by mid-afternoon. Please take precautions today, as advised below...
*** NYC is issuing a health advisory for today (Wednesday) in light of deteriorating air quality due to smoke from wildfires in Canada. *** * All NYers should limit outdoor activity and stay inside when possible. 1/

Discover results published in the latest issue of Science Magazine, using our new PrimateAI-3D, an #AI algorithm, that predicts disease-causing genetic mutations with unprecedented accuracy.
An international team of researchers has analyzed nonhuman #PrimateGenomes from more than 230 species. The results show how these data can help us learn about both nonhuman primate biology and our own health. Learn more in a special issue of Science: scim.ag/2Qe

In 2017, I interviewed with Elizabeth Holmes to be Head of Finance at Theranos. I'm convinced I learned more in those 45 minutes than I did in 10 years of school and work. Today, she reports to federal prison to serve out an 11 year sentence for fraud. Time for a story 🧵:
