Very grateful for the support from @pewhealth for this project and @travisclantz who is an amazing graduate student who is taking the lead on getting this project off the ground!.
Dr. Maria Barna from @Stanford & Dr. Christine Dunham from @EmoryUniversity are teaming up to explore global protein synthesis.🔬. Their goal: study how small molecules can boost protein production & revolutionize the treatment of diseases like ALS and Diamond Blackfan anemia.
