UK’s MHRA just unlocked bedside manufacturing for #CART & gene-edited cells. How do FDA FRAME, Japan’s ASRM & China’s dual-track stack up; and what does it mean for toolmakers racing to equip hospital micro-factories? Dive into the latest #LonrúLens 👉 lonruconsulting.com/blog-1-1…

An historic moment in molecular medicine. An historic moment for SCD and BT patients. 🙌
The UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency approves the CRISPR/Cas9 gene-edited treatment for #SickleCellDisease & #BetaThalassemia in Great Britain. This is a historic milestone arising out of our collaboration with Vertex. Learn more: crisprtx.com

💙 @OvarianCancerUK doing brilliant work to try to address this. Please read @DrNadiaChaudhri thread for her experience with OvCar. ⬇️
But the bottom line is that ovarian cancer research is underfunded. We also need more awareness of symptoms because early detection improves prognosis dramatically.

Really looking forward to this!
Join us for a webinar Apr 7 that will showcase the development of a genome-wide #CRISPR screen in primary #Tcells to identify drug targets for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (#IMIDs). Preliminary data obtained from a mini screen will be discussed.

Love to watch these murmurations!
What an amazing few months it has been chasing the murmurations around Lough Ennell looking for the shot with @hogg82, our patience eventually paid off. Thanks so much to the @IrishTimes for the wonderful usage today
March is #OvarianCancerAwarenessMonth and @OvarianCancerUK are doing some wonderful work to raise awareness, improve diagnosis and treatment and are working towards a goal of 0 deaths from OvCar in the future 💙💙💙
It’s Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re highlighting the inequalities thousands of women with ovarian cancer are facing. We want to make sure all women have access to the same level of care. Find out more 👇
“Single step engineering, multiplexed, elegant, scalable technologies that will allow pharma-like manufacturing of cell therapies are key to expanding the market.” Marco Alessandrini #antionbiosciences @CAR_TCell @MaxCyte_info
More complex cell therapies demand an equally gentle and robust technology to enable multiple engineering steps - that’s what MaxCyte’s ExPERT platforms enable 🦋
A great video snippet of the work our partner, @AllogeneTx, is doing with their AlloCAR T™ approach.

Ag súil go mór le focail @TheAmandaGorman a chloisteáil... cá bhfuil mo chaife?! ☕️ 😳😉
Poetry at the Super Bowl is a feat for art & our country, because it means we’re thinking imaginatively about human connection even when we feel siloed. I’ll honor 3 heroes who exemplify the best of this effort. Here’s to them, to poetry, & to a #SuperBowl like no other 💛
It was magnificent!
Why did I wait so long to try @MeatPeter salt aged rack of lamb?! The fat literally bursts with flavour and the meat is deliciously tender. This first rack cooked on charcoal from @andynoonan Baste and a wee lump of hickory wood. No cuttlery needed - my kind of lollipop! 🐑 🍭
Brilliant! @AlexKane221b if it weren’t for the fact that they hold the purse strings, we’d have built roads around both of them long ago!
This was delicious! @CastlescreenFrm Chicken picked up at @InnsCrossMarket is full of flavour & not a drop is wasted as all the juices soak into the orzo 🤤
Cooked @Nigella_Lawson Chicken, Lemon & Orzo tonight using the very best @CastlescreenFrm Chook picked up at @InnsCrossMarket today. The chicken is juicy & crispy - the orzo soaks up all of the stock that slowly oozed out from the bird. 🤤 Nigella, we’re in the parmesan crew 🤫
@AndrewMuirNI pls support changes to this week’s Licensing and Registration of Clubs (Amendment) Bill. It doesn’t go far enough to allow breweries to serve their beer in onsite taprooms.

Easy to see how this technology will lead to more efficient and aesthetic solar technology 🙌🏻 Nice work @Nanoleaves @peafowlsolarpo1
Research behind our ultratransparent solar cells were recently published in Nature Materials. For those of you who find the original article a heavy read, we offer a pop-science summary of how these new findings can improve our cells further: peafowlsolarpower.com/new-pa…

Awesome to read about how Victoria Gray’s CRISPR therapy developed by @MaxCyte_info partner @CRISPRTX to treat her sickle cell disease has truly changed her life & her families lives. 🙌🏻 #celltherapy
"It's hard to put into words the joy that I feel," says Victoria Gray, the first person with a genetic disorder to get treated in the U.S. with #CRISPR. The treatment has alleviated complications of her disorder, #SickleCell disease, @NPR reports. n.pr/3ezduhu

Poetry & pipettes... arts & science go hand in hand! Love the limerick @anne_churchland 🙌🏻
I have a big update. So, as one does, I wrote a limerick:
My lab ponders decisions all day
Measuring neurons during stimulus and delay
Working together has been fun
Now we’ll do it in the sun
‘Cause we're moving to UCLA!
