🔬💡 Nature has compiled examples of basic #research that seemed impractical but led to major breakthroughs, including Thomas Brock's 1960s #Yellowstone hot springs bacteria work that enabled PCR technology for #DNA analysis.

The compilation traces discoveries from Isidor Rabi's 1930s atomic nucleus research to MRI development, Friedrich Reinitzer's 1888 carrot root studies to LCD screens, Francisco Mojica's microbial research to #CRISPR gene editing, and Gila monster venom studies to #diabetes medications like #Ozempic.

In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned.

Today, we’re publishing a list of those exempted drugs.

Does anyone here work for, or know someone who works for Tidepool? (https://www.tidepool.org) I'd really like to stop seeing this screen

It's 2025, and the web app works in Safari, so not sure why it's still presenting the screen. Change the UA and it works as advertised.

Also as a developer I’m curious to know why this choice was made, and why we’re detecting the UA and not features…

Please don't make me grovel for boosts ... it would be nice to just login...
