Thank you @NEJM for bringing rare disease to the spotlight. Hopefully this will inspire more research into lncRNAs because surely there are more stories out there like CHASERR waiting to be discovered.

Deletions in a gene (𝘊𝘏𝘈𝘚𝘌𝘙𝘙) that encodes a long noncoding RNA cause severe developmental delay and an increase in expression of a neighboring gene, 𝘊𝘏𝘋2. Read the Brief Report:

On Rare Disease Day, we celebrate all those impacted with rare diseases like my Emma. We also celebrate those struggling to find a diagnosis. I dream of a day where I don’t have to watch my child suffer such immense pain and challenges. #PequenaPeroValiente.

Strong opinions. In acctg, there's a rule called the “matching principle” - match revenue & expenses using GAAP estimates. Under @NIH rules, you can’t allocate expenses across multiple projects. Only direct count. Disconnected from reality. Bad accounting = distorted narrative.

Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above
