Big News, an ERDERA CHAMPION grant for MSD research approved for 2.1 million Euro. It did not happen by accident! It's worth reading the background & the plan to develop potential treatments for Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency. Read more: savingdylan.com/news #RareDiseaseDay

@DublinAirport You have only gone and done it? No more of your S-max wheel chairs to go down stairs for getting off standard planes. Tell me you have now matched every other European capital city and got an Ambi lift that can take any disabled wheelchair passenger off any plane that needs it?

Great to see results in San Diego from another MSD Action Foundation funded project. If I take off my MSD parent hat & I put on my scientific hat, the future of MSD research is very exciting!

A very important iPSC neuron poster presented @WORLDSymposia by @margaretmcass of @CHOP_Research. Thank you Margaret & the co-authors for this work including @AhrensNicklas for being a wonderful mentor. This excellent work is really important for translational research on MSD.

Insufficient resources in #NNBSL not an excuse for slow implementation of @DonnellyStephen & #NSAC recommendations for expansion of newborn screening - NBS saves lives! @BernardGloster @CcoHse you must resource lab and accelerate expansion - SCID & SMA awaiting implementation
