@OdedRechavi This is amazing and incredibly creative! Was there a reason that you decided to administer IP instead of IV in vivo? In a conventional system you would expect better delivery IV, although this is far from conventional. Can't wait to see how this system develops.
BREAKING NEWS
The 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.
A new report from @zhangf and colleagues introduces an exciting new vehicle with potential for delivering molecular therapeutics into cells based on contractile injection systems.

This work has been a major part of my life in the @RossWilsonLab and I am very excited to see it come to fruition in the form of this manuscript, out now in @natBME. For a quick overview, check out this thread.
🚨 New publication 🚨
#SCGE PI @RossWilsonLab of @igisci reports peptide-mediated delivery of CRISPR enzymes for the efficient editing of primary human lymphocytes. #CRISPR#lymphocytes

70 years ago, 3 papers appeared in @Nature under the title ‘Molecular structure of nucleic acids’. In an article appearing today (link at end) @matthewcobb and I shed new light on ‘what Watson and Crick really took from Rosalind Franklin’. This thread summarizes our findings.1/23
Excited to share this pre-print on recent developments in non-viral delivery of CRISPR-Cas9 to the mouse brain, following up on work from the @doudna_lab published in 2017 https://t.co/C3xnpTAKGz
If you're in New York, my lab (@RossWilsonLab ) mate Alzbeta Ressnerova, will be giving a talk on Monday March 13 at Bozeman National Hall on the ethics of #CRISPR . It's a great talk! https://t.co/DQHNJkTdTy
Celebrating that Jill receives the Leeuwenhoek Medal this year! It is is granted every ten years to the scientist judged to have made the most significant contribution to microbiology during the preceding decade. Cheers @BanfieldJill !
@UofCalifornia should pay academic workers commensurate with their experience and expertise. If they can do so, science will benefit.
Some of the smartest and most accomplished scientists are forced out of academia because of the pay.
If you are not aware, postdocs, graduate students and academic workers @UCBerkeley are currently on strike, demanding higher pay and other benefits.
I can't speak for others, but I'll break down the math of being a postdoc in the bay area: 1/
Postdocs at UC Berkeley make $54,540/yr
I do not expect academic pay to match industry pay. But academic workers should not have to put their lives on hold to stay in science.
In the bay area $54,000 is not enough to buy a house, have a family, or keep savings.
