Q: Now that @RandPaul has announced on the floor of the Senate that you’re creating superviruses and performing gain-of-function experiments, this seems like a good time to talk about your work. https://t.co/jBAbewAZrE — PolitiTweet.org

Q: How do you define gain-of-function research? Baric: Human beings have practiced gain-of-function for the last 2,000 years, mostly in plants, where farmers would always save the largest seeds from the healthiest plants to replant the following year. https://t.co/TJDgwOIEVe — PolitiTweet.org
