"November, 2016. Donald Trump had just defeated Hillary Clinton to become the
45th president of the United States. The British monarchy drama
The Crown
began streaming on Netflix. And a bioinformatician you’ve never heard of named
Jacob Feala left his post at the biotech company Moderna, having finished
building, along with scientist Razvan Cristescu, an algorithm that would one
day turn a cancer treatment dream into reality.
That algorithm is now the backbone behind Moderna and Merck’s cancer vaccine
that was recently shown to significantly cut the risk of melanoma recurrence in
a late-stage trial. When he heard the news, biotech reporter Adam Feuerstein
posted on X that he “literally yelped.”
Why all the excitement from normally staid science journalists?"
