Crazy—we took a quick look at our platform data to see if it supported how it "feels" out there. 2024 is on trend for the lowest programs against "new drug targets" in ~30 years. This kind of risk aversion very bad for future patients, especially with so much strong new omics-driven evidence and broadly rising drugability.

Nice explanation of the benefits of the emerging hub-and-spoke model in biotech!

@MoranLabChem @uOttawaScience Wow! Exciting!

[dana foss @dv_foss]

We made the cover @natBME with our recent work from my postdoc @RossWilsonLab @igisci @UCBerkeley

Congrats to the whole team who contributed to this work!!!

[Nature Biomedical Engineering @natBME]

The May cover illustrates that a peptide identified via screening aids the delivery of CRISPR ribonucleoprotein into cells, increasing the yield of edited primary human lymphocytes.

Excited to highlight @natBME cover story on PERC, peptide-based delivery of #CRISPR RNPs into T cells for ex vivo gene editing with reduced toxicity vs. electroporation. Great work from @dv_foss et al. @RossWilsonLab @j_eyquem @MarsonLab #CARTcell https://t.co/ermJvzMeyq

Thanks as always to the fantastic #scicomm team @igisci for this summary of our recent published work @RossWilsonLab , giving context and take-home impacts that are approachable for a general audience! Please check out this write up linked below.

@srishtiupasana @RossWilsonLab @natBME your contributions are so critical to this work, Srishti! Thank you for your continual diligence and persistence, as well as your scientific creativity! You've been amazing to work with on this project.

[dana foss @dv_foss]

Very excited to share our report out @natBME which is the result of my postdoc work @RossWilsonLab @igisci @UCBerkeley. Very grateful to co-first authors David Nguyen from @MarsonLab and @JoeJMuldoon from @j_eyquem lab @UCSF, as well as the *whole team* who made it all possible!!

[Ross Wilson @RossWilsonLab]

I’m excited to share our report - out now in @natBME - of a new approach to CRISPR delivery that is poised to transform the way engineered T cell therapies are manufactured. Visit https://t.co/UmTBpRE8jE for “how to” details. It’s threadin’ time! (1/11) https://t.co/MujT9iue56

[Jeff Ting @J_Ting1]

Great morning talk in the nonviral delivery session by @RossWilsonLab on “Peptide-enabled CRISPR enzyme delivery for immune cell engineering” 👏🏻🧫⚗️ #ASGCT22

Bittersweet to announce I have finished my postdoc @RossWilsonLab and @igisci and am starting a new adventure @RelatedSciences!

It’s been such a special 4 years of RNP delivery & chocolate covered pretzels 🥨

Stay tuned for our upcoming preprint!

@AprilPawluk @arcinstitute Congrats April! If you’re in SF let me know we can get a coffee!!

[Dr. Haley Wahl @hwahl16]

Update: The CDC still recommends not asking graduate students how long they have left until they graduate.

1. Major unlock of CRISPR potential empowered by metagenomics #NewMetaCRISPR. I’ve been hoping to see this happen for years: a way to edit the genomes of microorganisms within communities

[Dr. Liana Lareau @lianafaye]

The Lareau Lab at Berkeley is looking to recruit a wet lab postdoc interested in mRNA translation and more. Check out our website for an overview of our research. https://t.co/z0PXWd3RQC

@UjRathore Really sorry for your loss, Ujjwal. This is horrible.

@santiagojmolina oh also I would love to read your thesis! could you send it to me at some point?

[dana foss @dv_foss]

@santiagojmolina Congratulations!!! I suggest naps and hikes and staying away from your computer for as long as possible :)
