Today in @Nature we report a new prime editing strategy that can rescue a common cause of many genetic diseases in a disease-agnostic manner. This approach converts a redundant endogenous tRNA into an optimized suppressor tRNA, enabling a single prime edit to rescue premature stop codons across different diseases.

Our Victorian Chapter, AAMRI VIC, was disappointed today to see the Vic Govt has reduced funding for medical research in the 24/25 Budget, despite Vic scientists leading the way in their research & contributions to the VIC economy. @BenCarrollMP aamri.org.au/news-events/med…👇

Really great science by the @WEHI_research team made possible by a great collaboration with #aculeustherapeutics leading to better patient outcomes
Punching high! 🥊 WEHI researchers discovered that a duo of existing cancer drugs – venetoclax and a STING agonist – can KO #AML. As famous boxer Muhammad Ali might say, this treatment ‘floats like a butterfly & STINGs like a bee’!

C0VID & excess deaths: The last 3 years have seen a very big increase in total deaths in the world.
As this analysis from The Economist shows, C0VID is responsible for basically all of it.
2022 worse than 2020
XS death rates still high in 2023

Second day of #SITC22, breakfasting at one of my old faves, Tatte, reading through the abstracts. Lots of good science to hear about.

After managing to avoid COVID while everyone around us had it, 2 days of vacation care for my 8yo ended up with 3/4 of us now positive! Just waiting for it to be 4/4! 😩

Absolutely rapt to see this paper come together and published @CD_AACR. Kudos to @Pilar_dominguez @todorovizabela and Jess Salmon for leading this work. Interactions between epigenetics and tumor immunology….. so incredibly interesting! @PeterMacRes
