Brilliant #BMH2024 High School Holiday Program. From microbial machines to gene editing therapies Amazing presentations from Dr. Alexis Komor, University of California San Diego, Dr. Melinda Jingqi Wang & Dr. Rhys Grinter, University of Melbourne. @Rhys__G @KomorLab

Alexis Komor (@Komor_Lab) is a leader in #precision #genome_editing. She has developed new base editing methods that overcome problems with off target genome changes. Her work greatly advances efforts towards gene editing repair of genetic mutations.

Caixia GAO is at the forefront of developing CRISPR-modified rice and wheat strains to secure the world’s food supplies. She wowed us with stories of “scarless” and base editing strategies. Her team’s mildew resistant wheat has achieved registration. #Bmh2024

Rich asks us to use our influence for the good of Society. He points to a need for all scientists to advocate to the public and to politicians about science-based solutions to the world’s challenges. #BMH2024

Erinna (@erinna_lee) and Marilyn Anderson in conversation with Nobel Prize winner, Sir Rich Richards. Rich says: Embrace your “failed” experiments. If you repeatedly get an unexpected result, Nature is trying to tell you something.

@PetroTerblanche, CEO Afrigen, advocates the medicines that Africa’s population could be manufactured on the African continent. RNA Technology offers the possibility of leap-frogging barriers to manufacture, but problems remain with respect to gaining IP and licences. #BMH2024

A very sage Indigenous Perspectives in BioMolecular Science Panel fielded questions about how to work with Indigenous patients, colleagues and sample in a respectful way. Amazing insights. How to be a good ally. Build on deep consultation. Such important work. Amazing insights.

Misty Jenkins AO (@DrMistyJenkins @WEHI_research) gave a Plenary Talk on #CAR-T therapies, and #brain_cancer. She is so amazing, I got a bit emotional! @DrMistyJenkins @WEHI_research.
