Mark Patterson, MD, PhD<p>I love that <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/Harvard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Harvard</span></a> has taken a stand against the current administration and chosen not to fold their research efforts. Too much is at stake for the future of citizens of the US and globally. Their website profiles the work of Dr. David Walt. David and I shared a lab while at <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/MIT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MIT</span></a>. He is a wonderful person and researcher.
