In the old days, the words "art" and "science" did not mean the same thing they mean today, at least in academia. Today, unfortunately, they have almost come to mean opposites. You can't be doing both at once. Or, at least, that's what people who haven't thought about it much may think.
Art can be used to engage people in science, and science can provide a subject for art, and in various ways, the twain shall meet.
the neurotransmitters in just one site in the brain. and it re circuits the motor signals and allows the patients to move normally. so it s an innovative way of using gene therapy, which involves local delivery of the gene that makes a signal and then changes how the brain processes in order to help with the symptoms of disease. it s important to note that this kind of gene therapy isn t yet a solution for everyone, and it does still have limitations. challenges still remain in manufacturing the genetic material and reducing side effects. and of course, there may be significant implications around cost. but the work being done by meiragtx and other medical companies has the potential, at least, to change lives.
control their motor symptoms. rather than putting electrodes into the brain, we re able to put a tiny dose of a very specific gene that changes the neurotransmitters in just one site in the brain. and it re circuits the motor signals and allows the patients to move normally. so it s an innovative way of using gene therapy, which involves local delivery of the gene that makes a signal and then changes how the brain processes in order to help with the symptoms of disease. it s important to note that this kind of gene therapy isn t yet a solution for everyone, and it does still have limitations. challenges still remain in manufacturing the genetic material and reducing side effects. and, of course, there may be
