#syrien #syria #daraa #golan #israel Der Golan ist widerrechtlich von Israel besetzt. Er gehört Syrien. Noch dazu sitzt hier eine Daesh(IS)-Gruppe. Im aktuellen Daraa-Konflikt geht es um die Sicherung dieses Gebiets und um De-Eskalation. Putin bemüht sich. pic.twitter.com/uq2dmKjof6

(July 28, 2021) George Church on Gene Therapies and Longevity
What have been the successes and the failures of gene therapy in recent years? What do you expect to happen in the next few years?

So, most of the big failures of gene therapy happened at the very beginning, around the year 2000,
almost two decades ago, when a couple of people died from an LMO2 oncogene, and one person died from an immune reaction to an adenovirus vector.
So, that was 20 years ago. Fast forward to now, and gene therapies are mostly succeeding, hundreds of them are in clinical trials,
you have dozens that have been approved by the FDA.

That’s gene therapy broadly, and there are even a few specifically CRISPR-based, which means editing.
Gene therapy is, classically, adding a gene, while CRISPR is typically subtracting a gene,
and those also are beginning to work for sickle cell disease and retinal disease, and so on.
Both categories are looking pretty good recently, in the last few years.

Do you think that the success of the vaccines can change the momentum, maybe in terms of policy and regulation?
Absolutely. Also, the speed. This is radically new technology, and yet, messenger RNA for gene delivery was approved in ten months.
And so, we can hope that this is generalizable to other, similar therapies.

Comment:

On Navalny, the head of Russia's foreign intelligence service has just stated:

"Moscow has received reliable and verified information that a meeting of special services officers, non-government organizations activists and government officials was held in a European country to discuss ways of supporting the protest movement in Russia. "They discussed in all seriousness that sacred sacrifices were needed. And it would be better that such a leader of the protest movement played the role of such sacrifice. I don’t mean to say anything but it hints to some parallels"

(July 30, 2021) Google’s quantum computer supposedly just made a time crystal
Google’s quantum computer has been used to build a “time crystal” according to freshly-published research,
a new phase of matter that upends the traditional laws of thermodynamics.

Time crystals were first proposed in 2012, as systems that continuously operate out of equilibrium.
Unlike other phases of matter, which are in thermal equilibrium, time crystals are stable yet the atoms which make them up are constantly evolving.
At least, that’s been the theory: scientists have disagreed on whether such a thing was actually possible in reality.

Preprints are versions of academic papers that are published prior to going through peer-review
and full publishing; as such, their findings can be challenged or even overturned completely during that review process.
