People living with #MND #ALS lose their ability to speak - do we ever stop to think of the impact this has? These champs are going ‘48hrs without Words’ to show those living with MND that they are not alone. Researchers are in their corner. Donate today secure.mndandme.com.au/my-fu…
We are going to not speak for 48 HOURS!!! Duct tape is going to be needed! Every cent counts and every share raises awareness for the beast that is MND!

Delivering and expressing a gene in cells is usually a messy (heterogeneous) process. The messiness interferes with research and applications such as gene therapy.
In two new papers, we introduce a toolbox of synthetic miRNA-based control circuits that enable more precise, gene dosage-invariant gene expression, and show how they improve a mouse model of Rett syndrome gene therapy:

I'm behind @broadinstitute's benchmarking efforts led by Sami and team. While our preliminary work took a different approach and strategy, we ended up demonstrating the same findings.
Stay tuned. More on this soon.

Collaborative project between @UQ_News and @UMCUtrecht looking at the utility of #actigraphy for monitoring progression in #ALS #MND
Led by #PhD student @HoldomCory with insights from @rpavaneijk. Supported by @HondaFoundation
@WesleyResearch @MNDFoundation @FightMND
I'm excited to share our paper following from @rpavaneijk's work on the use of passive actigraphy for monitoring #ALS #MND function outside the clinic. There is clearly a lot of opportunity to expand the potential of this technology. @Steyn_Lab @Ngo_Lab:
