Day 1: How Babies Begin to See from BirthIt started in a dimly lit room. I opened my eyes and started crying, gasping for air. The faces of a few people in white robes blurred out like smudged inks.

In Chinese culture, the Year of the Snake (蛇年) symbolizes transformation, vigilance, and potential danger. Interestingly, herpes zoster, commonly known as shingles, has a direct linguistic connection to this symbol. In Chinese, shingles is called “生蛇” (shēng shé), which translates to “having snake.” This vivid term describes the serpentine pattern of the painful rash that appears along nerve paths, evoking the image of a snake coiled around the body or face.

AbstractCRISPR/Cas9 is a genome editing tool widely used in biological research and clinical therapeutics. Natural human genetic variations, through altering the sequence context of CRISPR/Cas9 target regions, can significantly affect its DNA repair outcomes and ultimately lead to different editing efficiencies. However, these effects have not been systematically studied, even as CRISPR/Cas9 is broadly applied to primary cells and patient samples that harbor such genetic diversity.
