RE: (IJCH) CRISPR - Successfully treating canine muscular distrophy. One step closer towards human treatments?

in #science6 years ago

Happy to make your acquaintance, @jaichai. I am interested in seeing this treatment work for humans. A young man from where I was originally from had Duchenne muscular dystrophy. His life was cut much too short for such a promising young man. He passed away when he was 20. His name was Jessie Davidson. His family started a foundation in his name Jessie's Journey to raise money and awareness for DMD research.

Jesse’s Journey has funded more than $9 million in research projects around the world, and is the ONLY Canadian charity that exists solely to fund Duchenne muscular dystrophy research.
