I have ample lab space and the team to execute here in St. Louis. Also, I have a family. YC's "move to the bay area" requirement makes sense for software startups, but less so for bio (at least for most of the good ideas).

Do you have to move to the Bay Area? I'm a professor at WashU and am interested, but I live in St. Louis.

Pretty interesting experiment by Radiohead. Kinda bored with their music but I'll be curious to see how this plays out. Should start conversation and the value of always being connected online.

I actually wrote this comment 2 days ago. It's interesting that HN corrects this to "2 hours ago" to fit the post timeline, which was also originally 2 days ago. Note, the original post didn't make it to the front page u

Yes. Cmon man. You're being overly literal. I'm just starting as a professor in biomedical sciences, where you probably know the terribleness reaches its peak. I'm also nearing 40 so the duration of "training" requi

Except, they treat their researchers like total crap. Taking 2/3 of all grant money for overhead? Salaries for 45 year olds with 20 years of experience that are the same or worse as 25 year old with zero experience in private sector. P

Nobel prize winning scientists can go rogue. Until these same rogues hire incoming professors based on their own biorxiv papers this is a small advance. This whole thing needs to start at the level of the funding agency, namely NIH. Publish

People in the 1950-60s said The Beatles and Bob Dylan were trash. It's called change, get used to it. Pretty confident Kim Kardashian will be considered an icon some day in the same sense as Marilyn Monroe, Madonna or whoever else was

It's a good study from high quality researchers, but to be fair there is a study almost every week for the last 50 years saying something like this.
