Happy Pythagorean Triple Square Day!
Today’s date is made of 3 perfect squares and they form a Pythagorean triple: 3² + 4² = 5²
This only happens once a century.

Today, on #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience, we’re proud to highlight the incredible work of Joanna Prieto, founder of @GeekGirlsLatam, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering women and girls in Latin America to thrive in STEM.
Through our partnership with @Ashoka, the Moderna Charitable Foundation is supporting visionary leaders like Joanna, who are breaking barriers, fostering innovation and ensuring more young women have the opportunity to lead in science and technology.
In a conversation with Clara Fernandez de Castro, our Sr. Director of ESG Strategy , Joanna shared her inspiring journey—from receiving her first computer at age nine, to pioneering remote learning and building a movement that champions women in #STEM.

Did you know that your Y chromosome can be identical to those of your ancestors from hundreds of years ago?
@AlexDainis explains how Y chromosomes barely recombine with X chromosomes, and so can remain virtually intact through generations. This means that some people can trace their lineages directly to some very famous great-great-great… grandfathers!

It may be #DNADay, but we’re here to talk about its unsung hero, transfer RNA, or tRNA.
While DNA, the master blueprint, stores genetic information, tRNA translates that code into functional proteins. One is the library, the other is the interpreter.
