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 https://t.co/wDOBjXJTNC👇

WEHI's Dr Sarah Diepstraten spoke with @10NewsFirstMelb about the novel combination of two cancer drugs that has shown great potential as a future treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).

@WEHI_research Amazing work by the @WEHI_research team!! 👏👏

[Geoff Matthews @GeoffMMatthews]

Really great science by the @WEHI_research team made possible by a great collaboration with #aculeustherapeutics leading to better patient outcomes

[WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) @WEHI_research]

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.
