A spate of consortiums, non-profits & research efforts are cropping up to build momentum for antisense oligonucleotides as a scalable drug development approach for treating ultra-rare or even "N-of-1" patient diseases https://t.co/i6PJhtEMxh #raredisease #precisionmedicine

Lots of #precisiononcology #cancertreatment news coming out of Madrid this weekend. Here's a little thread of my indefatigable @PrecOncNews team's #ESMO23 coverage so far (more to come!) @TurnaRay @alisonkanski @cathshaffer @ciarzc @myESMO 🇪🇸🧬📰🚨🙌

IRA @CMSGov drug price negotiations kicked off this week, and while the firms with selected drugs all begrudgingly -- but still voluntarily -- agreed to participate, they're determined to challenge the law's constitutionality in front of the highest courts https://t.co/VwUHvoiPMr

Good morning #Atlanta and America, and a big salute to my friends + colleagues leaving @AtlantaMagazine -- those I worked for several years attempting to reconnect the city's namesake magazine to its diverse reality.

I hope this "woke" some people up.

The DeKalb Avenue resurfacing project will begin on May 15, according to an announcement from the city of Atlanta. Officials project that the work will be done by this fall, depending on the weather; per @Decaturish.

Exciting stuff on the horizon! (@PrecOncNews isn't going anywhere; it's just going to live in a broader vertical that spans biomarker-directed and/or patient-specific treatment not only in oncology, but also in rare diseases, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disease, & more.)

Can Atlanta follow up a first ever win over the Red Bulls with a first ever win at Yankee Stadium? https://t.co/ONyvrBxzzf

When you’re trying to advance genomic medicine to help all populations, but you can only find data that come from people with European ancestry.

In 1979, President Carter had solar panels installed at the White House. These were later laughed at, derided and removed by officials of Reagan Administration.

[Alessandro Marazzi Sassoon @alemzs]

A high speed chase ended on Carroll St in Atlanta. Since I’ve lived here I’ve seen countless of high speed chases that come off of I-20 go down this street despite it being a narrow residential and commercial street at the heart of a community. It was a matter of time.

Josef Martínez has been told that he won't be part of Atlanta United's future. The club will move on from the former MVP this winter.

Atlanta Medical Center’s emergency room is now closed. The hospital will shut down completely on Nov. 1 after more than a century. @CapitalB_ATL

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

In keeping with my campaign promise, my Administration is announcing a plan to give working and middle class families breathing room as they prepare to resume federal student loan payments in January 2023.

I'll have more details this afternoon.

The cancelation is a major blow to the city of Atlanta’s tourism trade and the city’s mystique as a music mecca. #gapol #atlpol
