| 0:00.0 | Well, first let me thank Jana for doing such a terrific job. Thank you for preparing this case. |
| 0:05.5 | And I want to thank the two Onyins as well, my friends. This episode might be the most special episode |
| 0:15.2 | I've participated in in the human diagnosis collaboration. And the reason for that is if you go back and listen to our most recent episode, |
