If you have a question about this talk, please contact Scientific Meetings Co-ordinator.

I will describe the design, development, and therapeutic applications of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) that alter the splicing patterns of, and/or degrade, target transcripts. I will focus on CNS indications, including the development and clinical impact of nusinersen (Spinraza)—the first approved drug for spinal muscular atrophy—as well as our ongoing preclinical development of ASOs for a lethal pediatric brain cancer, H3K27 -altered diffuse midline glioma.
