Since the discovery of CRISPR-Cas systems, people have wondered if a similar type of system exists in eukaryotes. Today, we report in nature the characterization of Fanzor, a eukaryotic RNA-guided system that can be reprogrammed for human genome editing. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Lol why run an academic lab if you cant make time to meet with students or read their manuscripts

First report from my NIH colleagues in National Human Genome Research Institute of the germline #RUNX1 study now available in @BloodJournal. Majority had thrombocytopenia and almost half abnormal bleeding scores / platelet function. 17% developed HM, mostly #MDSsm or #AMLsm. ashpublications.org/blood/article-…

Concizumab, the anti-TFPI rebalancing agent from NovoNordisk, has been approved for use in #hemophilia in Japan. It is given by daily subcutaneous injection.

5'-UTR alt. splicing and uORFs regulate CD20 protein expression in B cells enabling resistance to α-CD20 immunotherapies. So how is CD20 transcript variant expression regulated????

Come & work with me! I have a post-doc position available to work on the blood cell malignancy, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The project investigates how Hoxa1 alters haematopoietic stem cells to cause MDS. Details & application instructions👇🏻 seek.com.au/job/72924002

Sometimes you can’t follow the blueprint because you ARE the blueprint. Don’t be afraid to be the blueprint.
