Big news: The Quantum Biology Institute is partnering with @jcventerinst to explore the multiomics of weak magnetic field responses in microbial model organisms. This collaboration will leverage their genomic expertise and advanced facilities to drive quantum biology forward. The J. Craig Venter Institute is a globally recognized leader in genomics, synthetic biology, and bioinformatics, making them the perfect partner for this groundbreaking research. This marks a major step toward uncovering the quantum foundations of biology, and we couldn't be more excited. 🧬

Emerging evidence shows SARS-CoV-2 can persist in tissues for months or years, potentially driving long COVID symptoms through ongoing inflammation and immune dysregulation. Urgent clinical trials are needed to target this persistent virus and develop effective treatments.

CA-50 receives nearly $1B in research grants from NIH every year. This funding supports the 80,000 San Diegans who work in life sciences, and vital, lifesaving research at UCSD, the Salk Institute, the La Jolla Institute of Immunology and more. @RepLindaSanchez and I are leading the fight against the Trump-Musk cuts to NIH that would devastate biomedical research.
