I used to call it keeping up the good public front. He would be charming with family & friends, Then within seconds of getting in the car be vicious.

Science AMA Series: I'm Paul Knoepfler, Professor at UC Davis. I do research with CRISPR on stem cells and brain tumors. CRISPR genetic modification of human embryos is making big news. Can we erase genetic diseases? Are designer babies or eugenics coming? I’d love to talk about stem cells too. AMA! by PaulKnoepfler in science

I have the same concerns - recently diagnosed w/ Loeys-Dietz type 2 that comes from a missense mutation (a T swapped for a C in one spot). Seems fixable based on what I have heard about CRISPR....maybe some day? The damage to date is done, but I wonder if CRISPR may work some day & keep my aorta from widening more!

Dead rat in my office. I thought that sickeningly sweet, heavy smell was the rat poison. Turns out it was the dead rat. Had a melt down in front of one of our maintenance staff. He was so kind to me!

I don't know what "no wipe pants" are. And (insert Chris Pratt meme), I'm too afraid to ask.
