This summer, the world learned that an infant -- baby KJ -- had been saved by gene editing. This morning at #STATSummit, we had KJ and his family on-stage. If you can watch this clip without tearing up... you may need a gene related to empathy edited.
We're having an amazing day. Here are some memorable moments.

I just got off-stage from interviewing @DrCaliff_FDA. One nice moment:
“As critical as I am of STAT over the years, you're providing a tremendous service right now to the country by really interrogating what's been called radical transparency.

So really appreciate that, and keep up the good work." #statbreakthrough
