We are so excited to present our functional #lineagetracing tool, CaTCH, developed in the @obenaufa lab @IMPvienna published @naturebiotech. Have you ever wondered if a phenotype is pre-existing in a cell or whether it is acquired during selection? Then👇might be your tool!1/14
CaTCH - short for “CRISPRa Tracing of Clones in Heterogeneous cell populations” - combines precise mapping of the lineage history of millions of cells with the ability to isolate any given clone alive from a complex population based on genetic #barcodes. 2/14
In a selection experiment, CaTCH allows to first identify clones with a certain phenotype and subsequently “travel back in time” to enable the retrospective isolation and analysis of founding clones from heterogeneous cell populations prior to their evolutionary selection. 3/14

1/ Election officials & the media can stop saying that there is "No evidence that Russians changed vote tallies" usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
2/ Because now there IS evidence that vote totals may have been affected. "A Georgia election server contains evidence that it was possibly hacked before the 2016 presidential election ... according to an election security expert." politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
3/ "The incident, which occurred in late 2014...not only calls into question the integrity of Georgia’s voting machines during critical elections, but raises new questions about whether attackers were able to manipulate election data & voter info through the compromised server."

1/6 HOW TO SET GOOD GUIDELINES FOR VOTING SYSTEMS
1) Consult with #cybersecurity experts
2) Do what they say
House bill #HR3351 says "the voter shall have the option to mark his or her ballot by hand." That's good. That's what the majority of cybersecurity experts recommend.
2/6 HOW NOT TO SET GUIDELINES FOR VOTING SYSTEMS
Senate bill #SecureElectionsAct sets up a panel of "independent experts on #ElectionSecurity" then fills it with ppl who are NOT #security experts. If you have to have heart surgery - do you want a surgeon or a hospital admin?
3/6 The #SecureElectionsAct has #bipartisan support, but contrary to current narrative it is NOT less intrusive to states - just less effective. It still sets up standards - but instead of specific ones, they are undefined & will be determined later by a panel of non-security ppl

Thread. BIG NEWS the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines 2.0 #cybersecurity working group is going to recommend NO #Wi-Fi & NO #Internet capability for #voting systems. This does not include #epollbooks but does include tabulators & election management systems. @secureourvotes
This is not a done deal, but it is a good step! The working group recommendations will be given to the Technical Guidelines Development Committee this Fri & they (the TGDC) may vote on these recs (could be up/down) then (supposedly) they go to the EAC for a public comment period.
Keep in mind that even if the EAC adopts these guidelines - they are still VOLUNTARY. States can choose to disregard them, or follow some & not others. Also the recommendation is not for the Wi-Fi capability to be removed, but instead permanently disabled due to cost of removal.
