Eli Lilly to Develop RNA Editing Therapies + Study Shows Benefits of Daily Steps
Manage episode 302341678 series 2900042
With RNA being the popular new “it” molecule in genetic research, Ayesha discusses Eli Lilly’s new partnership with biotech company ProQR to develop RNA-based therapeutics in this episode. The $1.5 billion deal will see Lilly leverage ProQR’s proprietary RNA editing platform to develop targets of interest. The team discusses how the success of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have heightened interest in RNA-based therapies.
The editorial team also talked about a new study that found walking 7,000 steps leads to a decreased risk of premature death among middle-aged adults by 50 to 70 percent. It turns out that the popularized “10,000 steps-a-day for good health” notion is no more than a mere myth as it is not an evidence-based recommendation. The new study provides a basis for the establishment of scientifically-backed guidelines for physical activities like walking.
