Hello I would like to talk about Luke Kornetβs back breaking block with Wemby off the court and Julian Champagnie hitting 6 (of 10) threes and just being there when they needed him most and Dyl Harperβs rebounding. Keldonβs late game shot making. Tough tough tough.

I'm a cardiologist. I have spent twenty years watching cholesterol destroy arteries, trigger heart attacks, and kill people I care about.
Today, Eli Lilly presented data that may begin to end that era.
VERVE-102. A single infusion. One dose. It uses base editing to permanently turn off the PCSK9 gene in your liver.
Presented today at the European Atherosclerosis Society Congress:
88% reduction in PCSK9.
62% reduction in LDL cholesterol.
Sustained up to 18 months.
No treatment-related serious adverse events.
One infusion. Not daily pills you forget to take. Not monthly injections. One dose β and your cholesterol may stay low for the rest of your life.
