To usher in the new paradigm of personalized medicine we will need to travel a perilous path. Much like the route through the Himalayas it has punished the naive and self-reliant. That is why I have dedicated my life to being a Gene Sherpa. What is a gene sherpa? The Sherpa speaks the language of the trail, he/she knows short cuts and dangerous paths to avoid. This blog is for those wishing to take the journey and those wishing to become Gene Sherpas.
Tonight I take a night off of genetics posting to watch the debates. What I can't get over is that the debates are being sponsored by Facebook. Have these presidential debates always been sponsored?
If so, then have they always been marketed like a bowl game?
Will they continue to be?
The Sherpa Says:
My gosh..... I hope these politicos are ready to start "Juicing"

Hey Steve,
Just added your blog to my feed reader. I enjoy your pragmatic take on personal genomics.
By the way, I'm going to be an early adopter with the 23andMe service. I have $280 in donations to raise and then I'm sending for my saliva collection kit.
Oh yeah, I'm sure you've figured it out by now but the Facebook "sponsorship" is actually a partnership with ABC for the Presidential season.
Facebook continues the Presidential conversation on their site with discussions, groups, news etc.
