Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Associated Heart Failure
I wrote two literature reviews on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy for BIOEN 498 in Fall 2020. The first one was on current treatment standards in treating DMD and the second one was on current and upcoming therapies for DMD. This was a very interesting experience, while researching for these reviews, I learned a lot more about the disease and it also helped me understand the larger implications of my work in lab and how does it compare to other treatments I the developmental pipeline.
This is my first review on the current standard of care in DMD
And this is my second one on Bioengineering Approaches and DMD treatment

However I do realise that they are still a long way from becoming a full fleged mode of threpy. This is something the general public does nor realise and this lack of awareness has led to a lot of cases of fake therepy being sold to patients and a general overestimation in the current capabilities of stem cells.
