$DRNA Initial 6-Week Data in PHYOX Phase 1 Trial Show Significant and Sustained Reduction in Urinary Oxalate Levels Following Single-Dose Administration in Adults with PH1 and PH2

$DRNA data: seem OK, but true extent of data could show inferiority to $ALNY drug $PRQR: a clear dud. $SGMO: an even clearer dud.

Dear PhD students, A scientific career in industry is incredibly rewarding. Beware of anyone who tells not to pursue industry - or not to pursue academics. The decision rests with you. Sincerely, Someone who has done both plengegen.com/blog/academics… nature.com/articles/d4158…

🎓 Yesterday marked the end of four amazing years with the RNA Therapeutics Institute at UMass Medical School... Time flies when you're surrounded by the best and the brightest! 👩🏼‍🔬I'm… instagram.com/p/BkpoSjDBo6U/…

Had a great time at the #RNATx2018 gala at the Worcester Art Museum! @WorcesterArt @UMassMedRTI @socheata @mfosborn @craigedit

A picture is worth 1,000 words! 😍 A relatively small cholesterol ligand can efficiently deliver a 20 nucleotide siRNA duplex across the cell membrane - in this case, to reach a glioblastoma tumor twitter.com/UMassMedRTI/st…

Amazing, inspirational career development talk by @JKamens at the @UMassMedRTI #RNATX2018 !! - key advice? Choose your mentors wisely!

Maire Osborn @mfosborn up next on Hydrophobicity Drives the Systemic Distribution of Lipid-Conjugated siRNAs for #RNAClub today

Khvorova lab & @mfosborn on fire this week with another pub: Improving Small Interfering RNA Delivery In Vivo Through Lipid Conjugation. liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/na… #siRNA #oligotherapeutics

@SpitaleLab @UMassMedRTI 😊 many thanks!!

@UMassMedRTI @mfosborn Awesome. Congrats @mfosborn !

Hot off the press from the Khvorova lab @mfosborn: Efficient Gene Silencing in Brain Tumors with Hydrophobically Modified #siRNAs mct.aacrjournals.org/content/early/… #glioblastoma

$ALNY wow, wow, and wow if similarly robust to what they've done in liver, $IONS/ $BIIB in neuro: businesswire.com/news/home/2018… Expansion of RNAi!!!!!!!! $ARWR...lung

Who's in your academic family tree?? Amused to discover I'm the great-great-scientific-granddaughter of Francis Crick, Linus Pauling, Robert Mulliken, and Ernest Lawrence... Colleagues: "this explains a lot" :) academictree.org/chemistry/tree… #academictree

Congratulations to Reka Haraszti, the first graduating student from the Khvorova lab @UMassMedRTI 🍾🥂

@BeAScientist TFW you’re about to introduce yourself to your session chair and they hand you their laptop and ask if you could set it up next, thanks. After 5 min of confusion at reg, when it’s assumed you’re an exhibitor, not an attendee. At what point in one’s career does profiling cease?

We are very excited to announce that we're working towards making our inaugural #RNATx2018 Symposium family friendly! We have family support awards & more! For more info, please see: umassmed.edu/RNATx/location… #RNA

Monday’s tea time @UMassMedRTI became an orchid repotting time- best tea time ever!! Thanks Garber lab!!
