BME Assistant Professor Anne Draelos is using A.I. and bioinformatics to reveal the hidden networks of the brain, and explores how gaining this understanding could improve lives. Listen to her recent Michigan Medicine podcast interview: michiganmedicine.org/fundamentals/a…

I was excited to attend and speak at #ASGCT2025 ASGCT, but then incredibly disappointed to be told I can’t bring my 3 month old daughter. Being an early career scientist and mother is challenging enough without additional barriers #WomenInSTEM #AcademicTwitter #momademia

I discuss the urgent crisis from the loss of federal support of science in the US and recent clinical gene editing breakthroughs with Walter Isaacson & Christiane Amanpour on Amanpour and Company, airing on PBS tonight at 11 pm ET, and on CNN International earlier today.
