S4:E5 Unlocking the Dark Genome for Lupus and Other Autoimmune Diseases


Listen Later

Autoimmune diseases like lupus impact over 5 million patients globally, but treatment options remain limited. Now, decoding the once mysterious "dark genome" could bring new therapies. Over 90% of our DNA was once considered "junk"—but we’ve learned this dark matter regulates gene expression and human disease. This episode takes you to the pioneers who are unlocking the dark genome's potential to correct root causes of complex conditions like lupus. We'll chat with those illuminating this uncharted territory and developing novel approaches. 

Guests include:

  • Rosana Kapeller, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Founder, President, & CEO at Rome Therapeutics
  • Steve Kafka, General Partner at S32
  • Keri Mastrogiacomo, mother of a Lupus patient
  • Katherine Cavanagh, Associate Investment Director at Cambridge Associates
