Dream team to develop in utero gene editing therapy for a rare neurological genetic disorder Professor Aijun Wang won a $3.2 million NIH grant to develop a cure to Dup15q syndrome using an in-utero gene editing formula.

I am so honored to be a part of this team. Thank you to the NIH for starting up their funding again. Please hang in there, fellow scientists!

The regime halted all federal grants then told UC administration if they pay $1 billion they could have them back.
It’s like ransomware.
UC is a public university system and we cannot do this.
So, no grants = no research and labs will shut down.
Are we great yet?
