This is very exciting! A small clinical trial using gene therapy for Huntington's disease has been successful. microRNAs were used to edit the Huntington mRNA, stopping it making mutant protein that can damage neurons. Huge hopes now for treating such a devastating condition

One of the most devastating diseases finally has a treatment that can slow its progression and transform lives, tearful doctors tell BBC.

It was the Medical Council’s belief,
That as a form of effective relief,
Paracetamol would
Be next to no good
From the pain of the Satsuma-in-Chief.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

The trend is still in Bluesky's favour. X is still larger but very regularly Bluesky easily eclipses it in terms of research being shared.
Linda Yaccarino claimed X had 600m users in April. Bluesky has 36m accounts created in total.

So striking an Israeli hospital necessitates the assassination of a head of state, but the destruction of Gaza's health system, and the starvation of a population is fine? I'm not justifying the Iranian attack. No one should be striking hospitals or any civilian targets. #FreePalestine #Hypocracy
