10 years ago Emily Whitehead’s family got the news that she was cancer free. We wondered whether these #carTcells could keep her in remission and cure her disease without BMT. Now we know. 10 years from this transformative clinical experience, 5 years from @FDA approval.
Today, Emily is 10 years cancer free! With this important milestone reached, we can now also celebrate that Emily is CURED. bit.ly/ewf-10yearscured #WeBelieve #ActivateTheCURE #10YearsofCART

I really do want to stay positive. So to end the Twitter feed for tonight: 390 babies were born in #Ukraine during these 9 days of war: 199 boys and 191 girls. #StandWithUkraine for our future

Looks like the whole of Novopskov in eastern Ukraine has come out to tell the bedraggled Russian soldiers occupying the town what its residents think: “War and death follows you wherever you go, get up and leave!” Crowd chanting “Ukraine!”

Very cool study! Not much is known about transcriptional regulation of rDNA genes.
