Our new paper is out! Vamorolone improves disease and increases dystrophin in our Becker muscular dystrophy model.

Test your muscular dystrophy knowledge: Which muscles are sick and how do you know? #MedEd #MedTwitter

I am so excited to share our newly published work on generating and characterizing the first mouse model of #Beckermusculardystrophy @MacGyver0282 @TheHeierLab @nikkimmccormack @EdgewiseTx @FiorilloLab #duchennemusculardystrophy #dystrophin doi.org/10.1002/jcsm.1…

@AbigailMackey1 "Weird stuff" 😂

For those who couldn’t be here, my 10 year old made this video summary of my talk ❤️

Hey #ScienceTwitter; is there a circRNA array/sequencing company/platform that you recommend? And are there any companies out there that synthesize custom cirRNAs?

With our publication in @NatureMedicine on pandemic-related barriers to the success of women in research, I’d like to shine a spotlight on gender equity for women physician-scientists, who face cumulative barriers imposed in medicine AND science rdcu.be/cHd4a 1/n

Harry's review article "Casimersen for Duchenne muscular dystrophy" is featured in the latest issue of #DrugsofToday @clarivate, summarizing the preclinical and clinical data currently available for casimersen, emphasizing pharmacokinetics and safety. @WCHRIUofA @UAlberta_FoMD

Interesting new @Nature paper. MicroRNA sequence codes for small extracellular vesicle release and cellular retention. 🤯 tinyurl.com/mr3zzfzv

A pleasure to see that the @journal_nd special issue celebrating Terry Partridge’s contributions to muscle research and mentorship is out. content.iospress.com/journals/journ… Thanks Raju for co-editing, @LochmullerLab, @JenniferEMorgan, Carsten and JND team for help and Pete Zammit for👇

A new study, co-authored by @ElsevierConnect's @mehmanib et al. reveals the #gendergap got wider, while paper submissions grew at the start of the #COVID19 pandemic: spkl.io/60184Ovtm #genderinresearch #researchworkforce #WomenInSTEM @squazzoni @LaStatale @PLOSONE

@davidjglassMD I very much miss the Molecular Mechanisms of Muscle Wasting during aging and disease in Ascona, and I hope it will be back soon. Great atmosphere for connecting with other scientists, and the view isn't too bad either!

Skeletal muscle science is odd; experts in these areas rarely mix: Ca++ signaling (Ryr1, etc); genetic diseases; adult biology - atrophy/hypertrophy etc; development; satellite cells/stem cells; genetic diseases, dystrophies, myopathies; let's get everyone together #myotwitter

Together with Isabelle Richard @GenethonFr we describe a mouse model that mimics #LGMD2L muscle symptoms, offers insights into the basis of this disease, and test potential therapies content.iospress.com/articles/journ….

First R01 is being reviewed (or not reviewed) in study section today. It's totally normal to refresh my ERAcommons every hour, right?😬

50 free copies of our article are available below!: Restoration of dystrophin expression and correction of #Duchenne muscular dystrophy by genome editing tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… @tandfonline @UAlberta_FoMD #CRISPR

This. If I had continued in the cure mindset for my son’s Duchenne diagnosis, I would have wasted 7.5 years of his life so far being unhappy. Accept and adapt. Let it go. Move forward. Smile. #Duchenne #DMD #Disability

Happy that our paper has been published! Human muscle stem cells are refractory to aging onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Delighted to co-host the new Research Topic "Genome and Transcriptome Editing to Understand and Treat Neuromuscular Diseases" with @RikaMaruyama_E @AlysonAFiorillo @MacGyver0282 and Dr. Duan in Frontiers in Genome Editing @FrontGenEditing frontiersin.org/research-topic… #CRISPR
