It is Saturday and my daughter and I decided to make the national breakfast dish * of #Egypt: ful mudammas. Question: are the jalapeños mission-critical? * I read this statement in this lovely book and apologize if the above is incorrect. themediterraneandish.com/cookbooks/
Cleese's work for Python ("this is an ex-parrot!") and Fawlty Towers ("please try to understand before one of us DIES") is sublime. What a deep shame to see him advocate for snake oil. Ubi nihil vales, ibi nihil velis, Mr Cleese. H/t @pknoepfler theguardian.com/science/2024/a…
Pfizer is _commercializing_ this therapy. It was _developed_ by Spark Therapeutics under the leadership of Dr Katherine High @PennMedicine. She also built Luxturna - the first approved AAV medicine. Dr High is a hero and inspiration to all working in our field. #WomenInSTEM

Dr Booth is leading the way for all genetic medicines in “rare disease” with her approach to have her hospital gain approval for the gene therapy she trialed. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I admire @Regeneron for its commitment to gene-edited therapies. Earlier, bringing in 270 and Philip Gregory, a superstar, to run edited CAR-T programs - now, bringing in Team @mammothbiosci - quite a constellation of shining stars themselves! 1+2=7 synergy there.

Two important firsts in genome editing 1. Fetal non-human primate base editing delivers to multiple organs statnews.com/2024/04/22/cri… by @MeganMolteni @statnews @WPeranteau @kiranmusunuru 2. #AI-generated gene editors success in human cells nytimes.com/2024/04/22/tec… @CadeMetz…
What actually happened: AI produced CRISPR-inspired genome editors that have modest on-target activity in human cancer cells. Impact on actual clinical editing in next 3 years: none. Long term - I sure hope so. I think X needs better AI to write these "Explore" blurbs. :-)
AI's latest: start with natural #CRISPR and engineer new editors. Clinical efforts have plenty of editors already (issues are cost + regulatory). Looking ahead I hope this bring us closer to "perfect editor for a patient's mutation in weeks." @CadeMetz nytimes.com/2024/04/22/tec…

@UrnovFyodor @matthewherper @ADeAngelis_bio I agree with your vision completely — we should be sequencing everyone and use naturally occurring genetic modifiers to illuminate the therapeutic pathway. My comment was more that a company with a business model in ancestry is going to have a very hard a pivoting to this path.
@UrnovFyodor @ADeAngelis_bio I mean, I don't think buying a telehealth practice was an example of a canalized worldview! But I also think that at this point they are likely to be open to ideas. If I were advising them I'd tell them to find a way to fund the development or sale of their existing drug…
@matthewherper @UrnovFyodor @ADeAngelis_bio They had partnership revenue. A huge exclusive deal with GSK. They spent a bunch of resources trying to develop targets in house and failed. To me the 23andMe story is a that of failed leadership and bad decisions.
@matthewherper @UrnovFyodor @ADeAngelis_bio Also, they can’t deal with rare variation, precisely where the most informative genetics occurs.
@jeffvierstra @UrnovFyodor @ADeAngelis_bio Not sure I’d even see the companies as doing the same thing. Decode had a head start on 23andMe and seems to be a key part of Amgen’s discovery efforts…
@matthewherper @UrnovFyodor @ADeAngelis_bio In any case I chimed in because my family has a deep multigenerational fatal monogenetic disorder with examples gene carriers but not afflicted (though should be, dominant variant). I have sequenced my whole family pedigree and not easy problem and not a scalable one.
