I'm watching @theallinpod on YT (business topics only so far) & I agree w/ comments that Starbucks needs to figure out how to reduce the amount of sugar in their beverages while maintaining taste. It's 1 of the factors impacting sales. Look at the amount of sugar: $SBUX Dunkin' needs to do the same

@CarolynBertozzi @arcinstitute @ArcadiaScience @cziscience Carolyn - love seeing you weighing in! It may disrupt the paradigm of science funding which, in my mind, actually does require innovation and disruption. But, I don't think it'll impact company formation - good ideas and good science will continue to drive NewCos.

Great talk by @VadimGladyshev! Fun anecdote from the night🧑⚕️ While I was away Vadim asked the audience "is @agingdoc1 here?" So when I later commented to the audience on Vadim's point on organ clocks (I brought up @SnyderShot's ageotypes) @AkikoaCom asks me "who is agingdoc?"😁
