@RatnashreeB @PostdocVoice @thepostdoctoral Enjoyed having our paths cross - All the best to you!

[Stefanie Dugan @sbndugan]

@JonRob08 Yes! Especially for mothers/sisters/daughters who for a lifetime have viewed hemophilia through the lens of the impact on sons/brothers/fathers, it can take exactly the right moment to truly hear and consider the question with respect to themselves. Every time, keep asking.

@J9_Austin @laurahercher And so ironically, just last night I explained the jam jar to my own daughter. How many #genechat benefit from @J9_Austin research & brilliance not only in our workplace but with friends/fam too? Full circle from your start J9: GCs helping those we ❤️w psychiatric conditions. 🙏

@J9_Austin @laurahercher Oh @J9_Austin, my heart breaks to read this & feel the weight of this truth. (here I am thinking 🇨🇦 had distribution of healthcare figured out) You know your mentorship profoundly impacted me. Still does. The world is & will continue to be a better place for your work. Hold fast

@SGreenbergGC @JUrology Fantastic! Congrats!

[Heidi Rehm @HeidiRehm]

Very excited to have this work out and a big thanks to @ksamocha and the rest of the gnomAD team for getting this over the finish line. I was very surprised to discover how uncommon it is to see two rare variants in most genes - learn something new everyday!

Pierce #EADAD on Gene Therapy in 2023. No ability to re-dose or alter a low expression, can not predict who will get a good expression or no expression or who will require steroids. Safety unknowns. Informed decision making.. 1/2

[Shematologist, MD @acweyand]

First #GeneTherapy for #Hemophilia B approved in the US today.

Stable expression beyond 12(!) years in the earliest programs.

Price tag of $3.5 million may seem high but annual FIX replacement averages >$600k annually.

[Michael Makris @ProfMakris]

Important day in the history of #haemophilia treatment. Today the first ever gene therapy for #hemophilia B has been approved by the FDA in the US. So now we have approved gene therapy for hemophilia A in Europe and hemophilia B in the US. https://t.co/J6fY49wbL9

Khair #EHC2022 on shared decision making. She correctly states that this should be a process over several months, especially as we consider Gene Therapy which is an irreversible decision 1/

Totally agree. In the era of novel therapies ,re-balancing agents and Gene Therapy, shared decision making is vital.
