Advancements in Progeria Research

This chapter explores the differences between men's and women's gymnastics before shifting focus to Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, a genetic condition causing rapid aging in children. The discussion highlights recent breakthroughs in gene-editing technologies, particularly the use of adenine base editors in correcting mutations associated with progeria. Researchers share their challenges and hopes in transitioning from lab successes to clinical trials, emphasizing the importance of collaboration in developing effective treatments for rare genetic disorders.
