Kidney disease affects 1 in 10 of the UK population and has largely been overlooked in the UK 10 Year Health Plan. Please sign this petition by Thursday 9th October to emphasise the importance of a national strategy for kidney disease. www.ukkidney.org/prime-minist...
Great talk about the Hidden initiative from Kate Bramham and detecting CKD in the community in London. Absolutely inspirational @kidneyresearchuk.org
Interesting!
Having a fantastic time listening to all the progress in kidney research in the UK @kidneyresearchuk.org driving discoveries. Fantastic talk @willkidney.bsky.social about how large well designed trials have changed our practice in nephrology
Kidney disease affects more than 7 million people in the UK, yet was largely overlooked in the Government’s new 10-year health plan for the NHS. Without action, it will place an unsustainable burden o...

So excited to share our new paper out today in @nature.com. We repurposed R2 retrotransposons to create STITCHR, a tool that can make virtually any kind of edit in mammalian genomes including the scarless multi-kilobase scale insertions 🧵
