TODO how to calculate

This is a pre-requisite of Section "Students must have a flexible choice of what to learn".

If the choice of what to learn depend on a years long dependency graph of other obligations, which currently are the increasingly interlinked:you end up without much choice at all.

The lock-in periods must be much more fluid and shorter term than those, otherwise it makes the almost inevitable pivots to success impossible.

This is something that Ciro Santilli has heard from several people at the end of their undergrad/PhD degrees. Some online mentions:

UniProt human: www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9BYF1 It is interesting to see in the Mutagenesis how many known mutations can increase or decrease SARS-CoV-2 S protein binding affinity.

Receptor in SARS-CoV-2 cell entry.

This was one of the first notable country-led large scale sequencing efforts of the world.

Sample paper: www.nature.com/articles/ng.3247

The point of these is that they are good for transfection apparently.

20k genes, 3 billion base pairs. We can handle this!!!
