On March 20th I am talking about the future of gene editing in humans at a symposium on gene editing and ethics arranged by @Vetenskapsradet in Stockholm. This will be an interesting day - and registration is free! #CRISPR vr.se/aktuellt/evenemang/eve…
Wonderful lab outing with @ParmarLab and Lundberg lab at Falsterbo. Rain, storm, waves and seals. What’s not to like about Scandinavia? Apply for a postdoc position now!

Experts warn that some unproven and unapproved stem cell therapies can cause significant harm to patients. Learn what Prof Megan Munsie of @unimelb, chair of ISSCR’s Ethics Committee says to @BBCNews #stemcells @SJMorrison_ @pknoepfler @CaulfieldTim bbc.in/2Fy0SHa
We have established and optimized a robust 2D differentiation protocol to generate forebrain progenitors from human iPSCs. Out now: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

And still on stem cell therapies - new data suggests that in the absence of immunosuppression, MHC matching alone is insufficient to grant long-term survival of neuronal grafts in the lesioned non-human primates brain. Implications for #Parkinsons? nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
