This gives me chills, for so many reasons, but in science... What is going to happen with science in the UK? Brexit already makes it a struggle to get the best people. Many postdocs don’t meet this salary cut off. Diversity-> creativity and inclusivity; we need/want foreigners
In a major milestone for science, for medicine, and for patients, the world’s first CRISPR drug has been approved in the UK.
“A new treatment for sickle-cell disease and transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia has been authorised by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for patients aged 12 and over after a rigorous assessment of its safety, quality and effectiveness.”
Congratulations to the many scientists, doctors, patients, and industry leaders who made this development possible.🍻
