Excited to share this excellent article by Teddy Amenabar @TeddyAmen in The Washingotn Post @washingtonpost. It provides a clear & balanced look at our recent discovery of a class of household chemicals that are harmful to the brain's myelinating cells. wapo.st/4dcYUL6

Proud to see work from our lab making its way to patients. I am hopeful that the investigational drug, ION356, being tested by Ionis will be found to be both safe & effective in people with Pelizaeus Merzbacher disease🙏 Link to our 2020 @Nature paper: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
