Organoids are so cool. They are tiny 3D tissues that mimic features of human organs. E.g. cardiac organoids beat spontaneously and immune organoids can produce antibody responses. Great post by @annasofialesiv on their potential to transform drug development. 2.6K views · 11 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

what if the cost of drug development followed the cost curve of mass to orbit? what might it take to flip the success rate of successful trials from 5% to 95% I wrote about organoids and how they might help us tackle the biggest cost center in getting drugs to market. https://t.c

I've coded up lots of personal tools over the last few months: * it's so fun! * so easy to get to 80% done, so hard to hit 100% * I wish latency was lower * main impact on my investing: seeing what I can do with Claude in 10hrs/wk has recalibrated my expectations for sw teams. 5.8K views · 58 likes · 1 reposts · 12 replies Open on X →

The DoE announced participants for its Nuclear Energy Launch Pad initiative, and almost 20% are backed by @humbavc! It's great to see https://t.co/PBEx3YDk8a and @AntaresNuclear on the list, and I'm very bullish on nuclear energy in the US in coming years. https://t.co/wdhp4MA21D 1.7K views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

This is one of the best company manifestos I've read: an incredibly clear, cogent, and inspiring for the future of ̶l̶o̶g̶i̶s̶t̶i̶c̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶t̶r̶a̶n̶s̶p̶o̶r̶t̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ movement. @Airbound_Aero is a company to watch.

@lpolovets @humbavc Nice to see the structural case laid out so cleanly - esp on misconceptions around relative capital intensity. I wrote to our LPs earlier this year re: subsurface startups and we continue to see similar dynamics across other deep tech areas https://t.co/NF05jf

@humbavc Thank you to @julian, @hberkman, @nunzi46, @MrExits, @jaimalik, @IanRountree, @seegoddard, and Josh Manchester for feedback on this post. Josh is the smartest of all of us because he doesn't use Twitter. 😂 10.6K views · 42 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Since I'm investing in deep tech & critical national sectors via our fund @humbavc, I wanted to better understand if deep tech is VC-fundable. So, I did what any engineer would: I analyzed data! TLDR: deep tech is probably the best place to invest today. https://t.co/0IxifARTPl 522.8K views · 955 likes · 132 reposts · 92 replies Open on X →
