And here it is our last work on Base editing of β0-thalassemia mutations with a nice online cover by Science Translational Medicine! Thank you to @LabMiccio @Inserm @Imagine Institute and to all our collaborators @marioamendola1 science.org/toc/stm/17/826
This week's issue of #ScienceTranslationalMedicine has arrived! A transcriptional signature could inform smarter antibiotic use in newborns with sepsis, an approved medication boosts anti-malaria immunity in volunteers, and more. scim.ag/483bUCz

L’@InstitutImagine est un exemple de réussite à la française dans le domaine de l’innovation en santé. L’IHU incarne l’excellence. Excellence dans l’innovation pour mieux comprendre et soigner les maladies rares et génétiques, avec 99 familles brevets actifs, Excellence dans l’attractivité, comme le démontre l’arrivée à sa tête de Bana Jabri, une professeure en pédiatrie et en immunologie de renommée mondiale. Pour soutenir et renforcer cette excellence, j’ai annoncé au cours de ma visite que les 3 chaires de Professeur Junior demandées par l’Institut Imagine pour venir en appui de ses chaires d’excellence lui seront bien accordées.

By leveraging orthogonal CRISPR/Cas systems, the team, led by Rasmus O. Bak, has demonstrated the potential of advanced CRISPR technologies for innovative applications in gene therapy and regenerative medicine.

Sammy Basso @SammyBasso, one of the most remarkable people to share our world, passed away last night from complications associated with progeria, the ultra-rare ‘rapid aging’ genetic disease Sammy both suffered from and transcended. Sammy realized that a base editing treatment that corrects the root cause of progeria and rescues animals with the disease would likely not be ready in time for him, but worked tirelessly every day to bring this potential treatment to other patients so they might have a better life. Sammy made the most of every day, living with great purpose, intention, and joy that was inspiring, infectious, and reminded us of what’s truly important. We miss him terribly. 😔 xitter.cf/davidrliu/status/16807… reuters.com/world/europe/sur…
