A Genetic Treatment for Sickle Cell Disease

This video presents an intriguing phenomenon: two patients who carry the same genetic variation, which is known to cause sickle cell disease, have very different outcomes.

Successful researchers need to have many talents. They have to be creative, of course. They also need to motivate group members, finish projects, manage collaborations, mentor, be resilient...it's a long list.

Please tell me skills/talents a researcher needs to have.

PUM1 mediates the posttranscriptional regulation of human fetal hemoglobin

Key Points. PUM1, an RNA-binding protein, is a novel target of EKLF that binds to fetal γ-globin mRNA and impairs its stability and translation.Elevated HbF lev
