The Future of Household Energy in Emerging Markets Will Be Safe, Convenient and Online

How did you cook your breakfast this morning? If you’re one of the roughly 3 billion people worldwide who live in energy poverty, it was over an open fire or a pile of lit charcoal inside a rudimentary stove. Cooking this way is inefficient, wasting up to 90% of the heat from combustion. It is also dangerous, affecting vision, causing heart and lung disease and ultimately shortened lives. Almost half the world’s population still cooks this way because they need to eat and don’t have other options, but thankfully progress is being made.

Go Get the (Immune Cell) Regulators!

The shortage of donor beta cells and the need for strong immunosuppressive drugs to prevent immune attack make beta cell replacement available only to people with severe life-threatening unawareness of their low blood sugar, called hypoglycemia. At JDRF, we are taking a new route to beta cell replacement technologies, with the aim to develop an unlimited source of insulin-producing cells without drugs that limit your immune system’s role in fighting off infection.

One avenue, which Shugo Sasaki, M.D., Ph.D., is pursuing with a postdoctoral fellowship from JDRF, is to use gene editing. More specifically, Dr. Sasaki wants to investigate beta cells that have been edited to make a molecule that attracts “good” immune cells, called regulatory T cells, and whether the transplanted beta cells ar
