DYRK1A Day is a special one to me for many reasons. But the main one is to bring awareness to this ultr-rare disease. I look forward to working with the DYRK1A Foundation toward a personalized ASO therapy.
Sarah Glass, Ph.D., our COO at n-Lorem, is not only a dedicated leader but also a mother to Ethan, a nano-rare child who lives with DYRK1A Syndrome. On #DYRK1AAwarenessDay, we honor the strength of Ethan, Sarah, and the entire DYRK1A community. For us, this mission is personal.
