Inspiring Medical Breakthroughs of 2017
December 24, 2017 at 1:42 am
This year there has been some astounding progress in curing and treating diseases:

Huntington's, Sickle Cell Anemia, Hemophilia, Type 2 Diabetes... I can't think of any more inspirational work than fighting these diseases. I almost feel like humanity's progress in medicine is accelerating. The collective result is so tangible, observed most starkly as higher life expectancy and massively lower infant mortality. The amount these figures have improved over the decades is astounding.

I'm so proud of our scientists. Smile
