SANTA FE – It’s not easy to miss Mark Moores.
The three-term Republican state senator cuts an imposing physical figure and is known at the Roundhouse as a gregarious and vocal legislator with a penchant for leading the singing of the University of New Mexico fight song on the Senate floor.

Novel chip that improves testing, tracing for Covid
According to the researchers, traditional methods of clinical testing often produce false positives or negatives and traditional methods of sequencing are time-consuming and expensive.
New York: A team of researchers has developed a chip that provides a simpler and more rapid method of genome sequencing for viruses like Covid-19.
The researchers, including Jeremy Edwards from the University of New Mexico, were able to sequence 95 per cent of the genome of each sample with greater than 99.9 per cent accuracy. This new technology allows for faster and more accurate tracing of Covid and other respiratory viruses, including the appearance of new variants, Edwards said.
