We recently spoke to Jayakrishna Ambati, co-founder of Inflammasome Therapeutics, who along with his colleagues, is exploring how Kamuvudines – molecules that inhibit the inflammatory behavior of the innate immune system – can help prevent retinal degradation associated with geographic atrophy. This week, we also have stories on off-the-shelf cell therapies, a food-inspired drug delivery approach, and the mobile platform, mVacciNation, that is helping to coordinate COVID-19 vaccine distribution across Africa.
