In the early 70’s, a gall bladder operation was a standard 30 day hospital stay. Now its outpatient surgery.

This is why the Federal Government needs to aggressively support basic research.

my great grandmother lived from 1899 to 2001. what a wild ride that must have been.

The human genome project was crazy to learn about!! They spent 3 BILLION dollars fully sequencing our DNA and it took the 13 years (1990-2003), now anyone can just get 23&Me results in days 🤯

It’s always mind blowing to me how many THOUSANDS of years of learning and experimenting we just take for granted now. Like less than 75 years ago we didn’t know exactly what DNA was and now it’s information that’s in section 1.1 in a elementary science class

As a scientist it's the result of collaboration across scientists in every single country. We're smarter when we work together.

Ever think we went from riding horses in World War One and on the moon 50 years later?

in the 1960s, we didn't have ultrasounds, and viability wasn't until 30 weeks gestation! now 22 weeks is becoming sustainable at a consistent rate.

Didn’t geneticists say they would never be able to map the human genome back in like 2014, and then in like 2018 they mapped the human genome?

I’ve always thought that the changes for my grandparents were more obvious. They had coal and ice delivered to their homes and no cars and airplanes and 45 years later, in WWII, there were tanks and long range bombers. The changes in my lifetime were more subtle, but just as substantial, such as computers, health care and scientific discoveries such as DNA. 🧬

Fun aviation fact: Orville Wright flew the first Kitty Hawk flight spanning 120’; his LAST flight was in the C-69 Constellation. A Lockheed 4-engine aircraft, capable of flying D.C. to LAX. Talk about trippy 😅

DNA is like a code so once they cracked the code of being able to see all the billions of pairs of G, A, T, and C in the DNA, they could start discovering things. It’s probably gonna bring a lot more discoveries in the future, since there is such an absolutely massive amount of information to decode and study

along the same lines, going from just discovering DNA structure to mapping the entire human genome!!

Rocketry was a hobby from the 1880’s which was then greatly advanced during world war 2 by the Germans since rocketry wasn’t considered a weapon at the time. Then it was further developed when those German scientists came to America. So it was more like 90 years. NOTHING just spontaneously happened in just 60 years. Same with genetics. You’re missing a LOT of information

When I went to college organelles was the last thing taught in biology as “heady” stuff. And now this isn’t even 101 level biology today. Amazing!

Yes, but understanding DNA, reading it, understanding the implications, and finding a tool to fix it with is even greater than flight to moon landing.
