just dropped a 🔥 new episode of mendelspod.
christian schafmeister is building a third kind of drug called spiroligomers: fused-ring molecules.
- bind tough targets like MYC
- resist proteases
this could be a new modality. a whole new field.

Watch President Trump's speech or continuing with a philosophical paper by Charles Taylor?
On the one hand, the argument to witness history. I will not be a passive enabler of the United States failing its grand vision.
On the other . . . hopefully the AP is invited to cover this event.

Breaking the ‘Undruggable’ Barrier with AI and Synthetic Biology: Eswar Iyer, CEO of Aikium
For decades, drug developers have struggled with so-called "undruggable" proteins—those regions of the proteome that evade traditional small molecules and antibodies.
