To me, this is the most remarkable thing about global health: With a relatively small amount of money, you can do a great deal of good for a great many people. This is money well spent, and we should go back to spending it—now.

#CRISPR cures on-demand can and will be scaled nationwide. In this talk at the Oxford-Harrington symposium I argue - with data - that the first nation to do so will be the United Kingdom and describe an actionable path to that goal. youtu.be/qlzhcYh7cLM?si…

Another scientist whose work initially didn't get the recognition that it deserved - Victor Ambros was denied tenure at Harvard, even after publishing the seminal work that resulted in him receiving the Nobel Prize today!

@SGaraude @JekerLab @nmc_unibasel @Cimeio Great to see that @SGaraude’s research has recently been published in @Nature. Here is a fascinating summary by Simon himself in which he explains how the team selectively eradicated haematological cancers, preserving healthy haematopoiesis and thus cornering cancer cells. 🧵👇
