Solna: A recent study has revealed that in addition to risk factors such as advanced age and chronic diseases like diabetes, genetic heritage also contributes to individual COVID-19 severity risk. The study was published in 'Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences' (PNAS). In the autumn of 2020, Hugo Zeberg at Karolinska Institutet and MPI-EVA and Svante Paabo at MPI-EVA showed that we inherited the major genetic risk factor for severe COVID-19 from Neanderthals. In the spring of 2021, the same researcher duo studied this variant in ancient human DNA and observed that its frequency has increased significantly since the last ice age. In fact, it has become unexpectedly common for a genetic variant inherited from Neanderthals. Hence, it may have had a favourable impact on its carriers in the past. "This major genetic risk factor for COVID-19 is so common that I started wondering whether it might actually be good for something, such as providing protection against another infectious disease," said Hugo Zeberg, who is the sole author of the study. The genetic risk factor is located in a region on chromosome 3 that consists of many genes. There are several genes in its vicinity that encode receptors in…

As COVID led to a spike in users’ consumption of online content, you had the prolific rise of dwell time on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. These platforms and their business models are still the same: advertising chasing user eyeballs. And in this race for hyper-competitive advertising dollars — LinkedIn’s a dark horse. Powerful for those who know how to use it. And “boring,” “dull,” and “too professional” for those who don’t.The trick, according to LinkedIn top Voice Sumit Agarwal, who has helped various businesses from different niches globally to build a presence on LinkedIn — is by being unprofessional on LinkedIn. Now that might sound a little offensive to some. But it really is not. It helps in humanizing any problem, making it easier to solve problems. This creates a unique way to find solutions to problems and generate leads, build up a recruitment pipeline, and rapidly scale a brand on the platform.He believes it starts with understanding what LinkedIn even is.Microsoft & LinkedIn: a 26 Billion Marriage of Convenience.Sumit believes that when Microsoft announced its acquisition of LinkedIn, it raised a lot of eyeballs.
