"Sooner or later all the people of the world will have to discover a way to live together in peace..." Remembering Martin Luther King Jr., an extraordinary man, who was awarded the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize for his non-violent campaign against racism. He also fought to secure economic justice for people living in poverty. Watch his Nobel Peace Prize speech: bit.ly/3bJCQuc

Dr. Weissman discussed the role of mRNA-LNP for cancer treatment & autoimmunity He concluded with a call to action: equitable IP access and capacity building for vaccines and therapeutics in LMICs, addressing diseases that disproportionately affect these regions @WeissmanLab

Robert F. Kennedy Jr announced that the US federal government is terminating US$500 million worth of grants for mRNA vaccine research. We must never, ever, forget that millions are alive today, or in better health, because of this life-saving technology. go.nature.com/3HDCS9n

Fewer side-effects, more effectiveness. @MJMitchell_Lab's lab redesigned mRNA lipid nanoparticles using olive oil-inspired chemistry. Adding phenol groups reduces inflammation, making mRNA therapies safer & more effective. "It's a win-win," says Mitchell.
