Brilliant work! But what is the timeline for this therapy to be routinely available to New Zealanders?
The Malaghan Institute’s CAR T-cell programme has won the PwC Breakthrough Project Award at the KiwiNet Research Commercialisation Awards 2025, recognising a breakout project that has recently launched to success and demonstrates best-practice commercialisation of publicly-funded research.

Such a cool story here. I co-founded my first tech company around the same time Amjad was getting starting and we finally exited in 2019. It's a long road.

Nice work UNEP. This shameful political era of science bashing will eventually pass. We must all continue to play a part, no matter how large or small.
Big step to #BeatPollution!

Countries have just agreed to establish a new global science-policy panel to support the management of chemicals and waste and to prevent pollution.

The panel will equip countries with the science needed #ForPeopleForPlanet: bit.ly/45z01DE

Apparently a 5 year framework was agreed at COP16. But very little specific detail provided about exactly where $200bn a year global biodiversity investment might actually spring from. news.un.org/en/story/202...
Global biodiversity agreement mobilises $200 billion boost for nature
Governments on Friday reached agreement on a strategy to raise an additional $200 billion each year to better protect the world’s flora and fauna by 2030.
