    • Abstract:
      The article discusses scientist Sonia Vallabh's work at the Broad Institute of MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Harvard biomedical and genomic research facility, and it mentions how Vallabh's diagnosis involving a genetic mutation led her to pursue a cure for the deadly brain disease that took her mother's life. Fatal genetic prion disease is addressed in relation to precision medicine and a single typo in Vallabh's genome.
