A reminder: just because there are reports of a possible side effect does not mean that there is a side effect.

Good thread on the ridiculousness of UK capital markets.

Atavism: The theory that some biological structures for some reason revert back to an earlier evolutionary type.

So hope for a great sea-change
On the far side of revenge.

The Israeli government needs to open more land routes for food and medicine today. It needs to stop killing civilians and aid workers today. It needs to start the long journey to peace…

Excellent/transparent interview by Brad Loncar BiotechTV of Sek Kathiresan MD re: Verve Therapeutics data. Completely agree with Sek’s assessment here and reasons to move forward with next gen LNP.

Highlights, again, that future of genetic medicines depends on delivery, delivery, delivery!

Leadership in action. Verve shifting clinical development priority to VERVE-102 due to lab abnormalities seen with VERVE-101, due to different LNP being used. This is EXACTLY what a clinical trial is meant to tease out. Onwards and upwards!

Congratulations to Westmeath on being crowned Division 3 Champions! 👏
