I don’t know about you, but now that it’s getting a little chillier, I’m starting to realize that my t-shirt and shorts combo isn’t really cutting it. I’m cold and damp; it’s beginning to rain in the Northeast, and I’m feeling a little too exposed. I don’t love spending hundreds of dollars on workout gear, so I’m turning to Lululemon’s hidden “We Made Too Much” section for price drops on high-quality activewear.  I didn’t know this existed until a co-worker pointed it out to me some years ago, and now I am constantly pursuing the section. Now’s a great time…

Patel, MD, director of pediatric retina at Massachusetts Eye and Ear and assistant professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School in Boston.

Généthon’s goal is to make cell and gene therapies (CGTs) not only safe and effective, but affordable. CGTs often are so expensive that payers are unwilling to foot the bill, even for relatively common conditions. For rare and ultra-rare diseases, which have far less commercial demand, the chances that a drug will be developed are slight at best.“We know CGTs can save lives and be highly efficient, but transforming them into medicines and taking them through clinical trials is very costly,” Frédéric Revah, PhD, CEO of Généthon, tells GEN. “Approximately 85% of rare diseases are too rare to be profitable…

The World Economic Forum reports that women remain underrepresented in STEM: in 2024, they accounted for just 28 percent of the workforce. UNESCO data paint a similar picture, showing that only one in three researchers worldwide is a woman, and in some countries the figure drops below 10 percent. Leadership positions are even more scarce: across STEM, just one in ten leaders is a woman.For neurotechnology, the barriers are especially daunting. Developing expertise requires years of costly training, often discouraging those without family support or resources. This period frequently overlaps with the stage of life when many women are considering…
