Global science lies at the edge of a new age of discovery thanks to advances in synthetic biology driving innovations that could reshape human health. Synthetic biology involves redesigning organisms at a cellular level to grant them new abilities. It is, at first blush, the stuff of science fiction; but in fact, it is a reality here in Seattle. In this episode of Lab Notes, we explore the promise and potential of this exciting field with some of the leading minds spearheading efforts ...

In the winter of 2019, a series of storms dubbed “Snowpocalypse” dumped more than 20 inches of snow on the Seattle area, forcing the closure of schools and businesses. This weather-induced social-distancing caused flu cases to plummet. What researchers learned from these snowstorms helped prepare them for the coronavirus pandemic and find what, at the time, were the earliest known cases of community spread. Their work has gone on to provide invaluable data that social distancing works to slow...
