NSF now funds my lab to understand how mutations to proteins and DNA change gene expression and learn to design new therapies. Federal funding has allowed me to train 26 new researchers, file 14 patents, write 71 papers, and launch a startup (2/3).
Our papers, device designs, and protocols are used by biotech companies every day. Basic science is not a luxury - federal funding drives the very earliest R&D that powers biotech and trains the next generation of scientists (3/3). #WithoutNSF
