The future of cancer therapies? - Ryan Murray

Here, I chat with Ryan Murray, a current PhD student at North Eastern University who has been using an innovative form of gene editing, called base editing, to engineer T-cells to target cancer cells. His editing approach involves making the T-cells allogeneic, more effective and stealthier!

I love to see young folks like you taking on these challenges in biology.

[@user-mm8jv3tn2l]

Thanks for another great video.

[@adam_thiesen]

Great interview!

[@benfriedman5916]

Good stuff. Thanks.

[@kingsize1182]

Great episode.

Glad delivery was discussed near the end. Seems like a big deal.

Get it done. Use it for atherosclerosis too.

Fascinating and very insightful! Maybe immunotherapy will finally attain more of its potential 😁

[@BakamonNO]

This was a bit to advanced for me. But I enjoyed the episode

Maybe you should first explain what T cells are. And urgently improve your language. Try not to swallow the words. Speaking fast and not clear is not advisable when trying to teach people. Thank you 🙏
