TJ Cradick with a great sunset at the Golden Gate Yacht Club during the #BLPN kickoff event at #JPM26

Fantastic start to #JPMWeek! Many great introductions, discussions and this great sunset at the Golden Gate Yacht Club during the #BLPN kickoff event.

Across the #JPM26 events, there were continued discussions on #CRISPR and Cell and Gene Therapy.

#GATC25 was well attended and well run. There were many good talks and even interactive sessions that felt more natural and less forced than some meetings.

Inaugural Genetic Agency Conference #GATC25 included many great sessions & talks, including 𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐲 on her life with sickle cell disease, her groundbreaking Casgevy CRISPR treatment, and her subsequent journey as a patient advocate.

Powerful reminder of why this technology matters!

Met many friends & colleagues at #ASHG2025, inc Andy McNamara & Yann Jouvenot, friends since Sangamo.
Also met people at ASHG that I worked with while at Repligen, Georgia Tech, Tularik, UCSF and CRISPR Therapeutics - so covered many years!

If you are at #ASHG2025 and want to meet, please let me know.
#Boston Oct 14-18
Are there enough CRISPR / Gene Editing people for a meetup?

Plus the short commutes!

This year, I am not joining colleagues at #CGMesa25 or #ESGCT2025, but here in Boston for 𝐅𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 #FBW2025.
Please let me know if you are also attending and want to meet up this week!
#CRISPR in #Boston

Hopefully, they get good mentoring

There were great discussions, many on how to advance the science and indications through diligence, IP and scientific strategy.
Other conversations focussed on strategy and roles in cross-functional management teams

@jtkantor.bsky.social Back at Fenway with the biotech group Bullpen.
Please rally us with the Pixies

Still looking for a better video of the ball, in glove, off the foul pole for the redsox.com‬ home run

Great day at the park and 6-4 game!
Thanks!

Hello @jtkantor.bsky.social
Please honor those Takin' Care Of Business for us today watching the Red Sox at Fenway on Labor Day

This is the content and commentary I miss from Science Twitter!

The In-House Impact Biopharma Summit started today in Boston.
Today's sessions include Legal and Corporate Strategy & Financing.

Combo in school: salacTites point down, stalagMites point up.

Ceiling and Ground also helped remind to add those letters

With many, many covers, who to epically comment further to complete a Big Star trifecta, and go for the twitter #1 record ?
@jtkantor.bsky.social any requests?

The Genome Engineering: CRISPR Frontiers meeting has started at #CSHL.

As you might guess, I did not pick the day for National Oyster Day.
I also asked 'Why August 5th' and the best I found was that 'No one know,' as if it was shrouded in history.
Anyone here know?

Happy 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗗𝗮𝘆! Hopefully you are enjoying life on the Half Shell today in some form. Sharing International #Oyster photos, from Sylt, Paris and New Orleans (during #ASGCT2025).

Happy #RNAday to everyone (in hopes you celebrate)

Hopefully AUG (the most common start codon) signals the start of a good month.

This afternoon concluded the 𝟔𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐍𝐀 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭.
If you are not following the field, time to read up as things are moving fast.
I presented some early clinical data, with hopes that multiple companies would be presenting clinical updates in 2026 !

First of two RNA Editing presentations done, “Navigating RNA Editing Regulatory Challenges & Optimizing Translation of RNA Editing Candidates to Accelerate IND Approval” with Robert Deans.
Also shared slides/movies from Franz Gerner, Kate Excoffon and William Kennedy, MD.

The 6th Annual RNA Editing Summit is kicking off today here in Boston.
