 General Summary<br>
<br>
The goal of Suneet Agarwal&rsquo;s team at BCH is to understand and treat fatal genetic blood disorders. We study these diseases by &ldquo;turning back the clock&rdquo; &ndash; using new technology in stem cell biology to take cells from our patients and return them to an embryonic-like state, wherein they regain the ability to form any type of cell in the body. The knowledge gained through our work is providing new insights into disease mechanisms and innovative treatment strategies for our patients, including novel small molecules, RNA therapeutics, and genome-editing approaches. The genetic blood diseases we study are the tip of the iceberg for several other telomere biology diseases and mitochondrial disorders of children and adults, and therefore we expect our work to provide answers for a broader number of people with fatal diseases.<br>
