As

reports, Hani Duglof, who took part in early research for a gene therapy he could not get, was detained by ICE for 6 days. His detention threatened his health and shows how anti-immigration policies affect a wide network, including those developing rare diseases treatments

How would

fix Atlanta? Clean water is not simply a human right. It's a public good that we must provide and maintain as we continue to design our city for inclusivity. ATL is thirsty. Let's bring back water fountains.

Half of US adults are eligible for GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic. (That's more than the population eligible for statins!) But are these medications always effective? Could doctors test patients to gauge their likelihood of responding?

Is There a Role for Precision Medicine With GLP-1 Drugs?
As the popularity of drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro soar, researchers, doctors, biotechs, and diagnostic firms see a role for biomarkers to guide their use.
