LA JOLLA\u2014The Salk Institute announced that Helmsley-Salk Fellow Patrick Hsu<\/a> has been named to MIT Technology Review<\/em><\/a>\u2019s <\/em>prestigious annual list of Innovators Under 35<\/a>. Every year, the media company recognizes a list of exceptionally talented technologists whose work has great potential to transform the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cPatrick hit the ground running when he arrived as a Helmsley-Salk Fellow in 2015,\u201d says Salk President Rusty Gage. \u201cHe has already taken CRISPR technology to the next level with an exciting RNA editing approach that targets dementia, and we look forward to many more health-changing innovations from him in the years to come. We are very proud to have him named an MIT Technology Review <\/em>Innovator Under 35.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a bioengineer, Hsu aims to understand and manipulate the genetic circuits that control brain and immune cell function for the next generation of gene and cell therapies. In 2018, he published a paper<\/a> in the journal Cell <\/em>describing his lab\u2019s development of a tool that targets RNA rather than DNA, and used it to correct a tau protein imbalance in cells from a dementia patient, restoring them to healthy levels. The new Salk tool, called CasRx, opens up the vast potential of RNA manipulation to genetic engineering, giving researchers a powerful way to develop new gene therapies as well as investigate fundamental biological functions.<\/p>\n

Working with Feng Zhang at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT, Hsu previously contributed to the early development of CRISPR-Cas9 technologies for efficient and precise genome engineering in eukaryotic cells.<\/p>\n

Hsu, who was also named to Forbes\u2019 30 Under 30 list, is a recipient of the NIH Director\u2019s Early Independence Award<\/a>. He received his bachelor\u2019s degree from the University of California, Berkeley, and his master\u2019s degree and doctorate from Harvard University.<\/p>\n

Gideon Lichfield, editor-in-chief of MIT Technology Review,<\/em> said: \u201cMIT Technology Review<\/em>\u2019s annual Innovators Under 35 list is a chance for us to honor the outstanding people behind the breakthrough technologies of the year that have the potential to disrupt our lives. These profiles offer a glimpse into what the face of technology looks like today as well as in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
