Also in AAV land, 1st pres on an IgM cleaving enzyme to enable AAV re-dosing [210]. Work on IgG degraders previously received a lot attention; Asokan lab show the disc. of an IgM degrader & feasibility of combining the two for more robust amelioration of anti-AAV immunity (17/26)

Preparing slides for #genetherapy at Swiss Society of Medical Genetics. I use Adobe Animate/Flash🤯. Could be worse (Powerpoint). Asked #chatgpt to write code to squiggle ellipses. Took way too long but it worked @SonjaSucic @DrJo_Ng @HesterChu @danielintheory @JIMD_Editors

Good luck to all the PhD students this week, where all their family try to understand what they do and ask when they will be done.
