Tonight's waxing #moon will lie near a pattern of stars - an asterism in the constellation #Leo the Lion - called the #Sickle. Notice the Sickle's shape, like a backwards question mark. And keep watching over the coming nights. By tomorrow night, the moon will have moved in its orbit around Earth. It'll have penetrated more deeply into Leo, turning full just as it arrives next to #Regulus, aka the Lion's Heart, on our sky's dome.

Buried with a padlock on her foot and an iron sickle across her neck, “Zosia” was never supposed to be able to come back from the dead.

Could gene therapy be a #gamechanger in the fight against #sickle-cell anemia? | DW News

There might be fresh hope for millions of people affected by #SickleCellDisease. In the #US, a new commercially licensed gene #therapy has been administered for the first time to a patient.
It could be a gamechanger in the fight against this disorder of unusually-shaped red #blood cells that can disrupt the victims' blood flow. This leads to severe health complications including #chronic pain and organ damage, which can also be life threatening.
The #genetic condition is found around the world but mainly among people with West or #CentralAfrican backgrounds. According to the World Health Organization 1,000 children are born with the disease every day in Africa. And the existing treatments can be rare and expensive.
