@Doc_IonaCollins @Adam_Skeen As a trainee I'm really interested in this idea as a way to improve. I wonder how much would be feedback on the system vs the care I've given. How do you collect feedback? Online form with open paragraph and rating? Do you collect contact details? Is it private or public?

First approval for a #CRISPR therapy in the world. UK MHRA has authorized Exagamglogene autotemcel (Casgevy) this morning. What a historic and uplifting day for patients and for the gene & cell therapy field. https://t.co/n0NQxwbdRs

It's a crisp, sunny saturday morning here in London, and I am thinking about genomics, its promise, hype and then reality over the last ~23 years, and seeing AI through this light.

Diagnosis of inherited retinal disease via a web app - excellent results using deep learning analysis of imaging - an exciting space!

For immunofluorescence, the normally transparent lens has been stained with color! Now we can see the elements that enable our ability to see near and far distances. Ciliary body (bottom, green) adjusts the lens (top, green), using the zonule fibers (red)! @ARVOinfo

12 Tips on surviving a hospital admission in COVID times.

1. Prepare to wait. Staff overworked, doing double shifts. Hospitals at full capacity. Be patient.
2. Bring a book, a computer, a phone and necessary chargers.
3. Come alone if possible or with only 1 support person.

How can we use RNA targeting tools for ocular gene therapeutics? Our new review and my first collaboration at CERA @EyeResearchAus after finishing my DPhil. Looking forward to some great eye research here in Aus! https://t.co/trMmoLrLbq

@BangvBui @jcrowston @DrVHYW @UniMelbDOVS Back where it all began…

[Lewis Fry @lewfry]

@BangvBui @jcrowston @DrVHYW @UniMelbDOVS Wow this was a long time in the making! Congrats on pulling this story together in the end! 👏👏I have fond (?) memories of sitting there tracing dendrites for hours back in the Florey in 2015 as this hypothesis was emerging

Pleasure to present my work on Cas13 RNA editing for inherited retina disease at #ARVO2022 in Denver. Great finale to my PhD from Oxford with @eyeMacLaren @rhodes_trust and @HertfordCollege. Thanks for the travel grant and all the support.

What does a typical journey with a white cane look like?

A THREAD.

Spoiler alert: there’s no such thing as a typical journey when you’re travelling blind.

Watch on to see what happened when I went to meet some friends for a drink ⬇️⬇️⬇️
