Today marks the publication of our manuscript, “Patient-Customized Oligonucleotide Therapy for a Rare Genetic Disease,” in the New England Journal of Medicine on October 9, 2019. This article describes an example of truly individualized genomic medicine: the development of a customized oligonucleotide treatment for a young girl with a rare, progressive, neurodegenerative disease
