Episode 53 - Something catastrophic
Friday, 6 March, 2026

In this episode, Matt and Kevin discuss a new paper from Matt’s old boss that shows that repeated “vaccination” against a completely harmless protein from chicken egg whites stimulates broad-based protection against a host of viral and bacterial pathogens, not to mention prevents mice from developing allergies.So should everyone rush to drip LPS and ovalbumin into their noses? Mmmm… not so fast.Plus, we kvetch about new NIH policies for the politburo-tization of grant review. A new era of American Lysenkoism is here! Links* The paper: Mucosal vaccination in mice provides protection from diverse respiratory threats* The new NIH policy on grant review - doesn’t sound so bad, but you need to read it in context.
