you very much for coming today so let me

you very much for coming today so let me start with asking you a question when

you look around in the seats here what do you see probably people and maybe

do you see probably people and maybe

do you see probably people and maybe it’s because my background in computer

it’s because my background in computer

it’s because my background in computer science and and then becoming a

science and and then becoming a

science and and then becoming a molecular biologist what I see are

molecular biologist what I see are

molecular biologist what I see are trillions of cells grouped together

trillions of cells grouped together

trillions of cells grouped together collaborating to form human beings and

collaborating to form human beings and

collaborating to form human beings and they they are actually little organic

so my talk is basically about

so my talk is basically about reprogramming the human computer so let

reprogramming the human computer so let

reprogramming the human computer so let me talk a little bit about the

me talk a little bit about the

me talk a little bit about the differences between a regular computer

differences between a regular computer

differences between a regular computer and a human computer so a regular

your cells do as well each cell has a

your cells do as well each cell has a essentially a manager is called the

essentially a manager is called the

essentially a manager is called the endogenous promoter that knows which

endogenous promoter that knows which

endogenous promoter that knows which part of your DNA applies to that cell so

part of your DNA applies to that cell so

that cell can do its job every day in

that cell can do its job every day in that collection those trillions of cells

that collection those trillions of cells

that collection those trillions of cells that make you up so you could imagine

that make you up so you could imagine

that make you up so you could imagine you know with this sort of view of human

you know with this sort of view of human

you know with this sort of view of human beings if we could change that operating

update that operating system and get rid

update that operating system and get rid of the defects or even improve the the

you know let’s focus on the defects

you know let’s focus on the defects first well the question might be more

first well the question might be more

first well the question might be more what can’t we do right we’re limited

what can’t we do right we’re limited

what can’t we do right we’re limited right now by our understanding of how

right now by our understanding of how

right now by our understanding of how genes work even though we sequenced the

genes work even though we sequenced the

genes work even though we sequenced the human genome all’s it did was give us

human genome all’s it did was give us

human genome all’s it did was give us the order of that ACTG but it didn’t

the order of that ACTG but it didn’t

the order of that ACTG but it didn’t tell us what every single one of those

tell us what every single one of those

tell us what every single one of those genes did and it also didn’t tell us how

genes did and it also didn’t tell us how

genes did and it also didn’t tell us how they interact but what it did was it it

they interact but what it did was it it

they interact but what it did was it it unlocked a whole bunch of research that

unlocked a whole bunch of research that

unlocked a whole bunch of research that is yielding exactly that information the

is yielding exactly that information the

is yielding exactly that information the driver genes behind all different types

driver genes behind all different types

driver genes behind all different types of diseases and once we understand how

of diseases and once we understand how

of diseases and once we understand how those genes interact we can couple that

those genes interact we can couple that

those genes interact we can couple that together with our ability to change that

together with our ability to change that

together with our ability to change that code in order to improve the operation

code in order to improve the operation

code in order to improve the operation and in order to mitigate the

and in order to mitigate the

and in order to mitigate the drivers of diseases and to essentially

drivers of diseases and to essentially

as the human being usually most viruses

as the human being usually most viruses all they do is they carry instructions

all they do is they carry instructions

all they do is they carry instructions to replicate themselves cold viruses

to replicate themselves cold viruses

to replicate themselves cold viruses that’s pretty much all they are they

that’s pretty much all they are they

that’s pretty much all they are they hijack the system they’re so effective

hijack the system they’re so effective

that when a cold virus gets into a cell

that when a cold virus gets into a cell that cell is a goner for sure it’s a

that cell is a goner for sure it’s a

that cell is a goner for sure it’s a dead cell because they will hijack that

dead cell because they will hijack that

dead cell because they will hijack that cell and they’ll make it use up all of

next cells and don’t worry about that

next cells and don’t worry about that you know colds are only deadly if you

you know colds are only deadly if you

you know colds are only deadly if you don’t have an immune system right

don’t have an immune system right

don’t have an immune system right because your immune system is actually

because your immune system is actually

because your immune system is actually even faster it can overtake that cold

even faster it can overtake that cold

even faster it can overtake that cold and it’s not a problem and I’m going to

and it’s not a problem and I’m going to

and it’s not a problem and I’m going to tell you a little bit more about that

tell you a little bit more about that

tell you a little bit more about that when I talk about our HIV functional

when I talk about our HIV functional

when I talk about our HIV functional cure but you know that’s the the idea is

cure but you know that’s the the idea is

cure but you know that’s the the idea is that these viruses have been carrying

don’t want to create a new virus what we

don’t want to create a new virus what we want to do is use the delivery

want to do is use the delivery

want to do is use the delivery capabilities of that virus to deliver

but you know the idea being is that

but you know the idea being is that reprogramming you is incredibly powerful

reprogramming you is incredibly powerful

reprogramming you is incredibly powerful and we now have ways that are reliable

of those things are doubling or more

of those things are doubling or more every year and the cost of doing this

every year and the cost of doing this

every year and the cost of doing this stuff is cutting in half that sounds

stuff is cutting in half that sounds

stuff is cutting in half that sounds like a virtuous cycle to me

tell you from 10 years in this industry

tell you from 10 years in this industry it absolutely is and it will continue to

it absolutely is and it will continue to

do and what you can take away from this

do and what you can take away from this talk is that high tech has come to drug

talk is that high tech has come to drug

talk is that high tech has come to drug development and it’s gonna fire follow

development and it’s gonna fire follow

development and it’s gonna fire follow high tech curves and the bottom line is

high tech curves and the bottom line is

high tech curves and the bottom line is is that if you can dream it you can do

is that if you can dream it you can do

is that if you can dream it you can do it you don’t know when you’re gonna get

gonna understand how to unlock that

gonna understand how to unlock that thing you know what the drivers are what

thing you know what the drivers are what

thing you know what the drivers are what the interactions are in these diseases

the interactions are in these diseases

the interactions are in these diseases it’s incredibly complex your your

it’s incredibly complex your your

it’s incredibly complex your your genetics are not just your DNA it turns

genetics are not just your DNA it turns

genetics are not just your DNA it turns out we just discovered you know recently

out we just discovered you know recently

out we just discovered you know recently that there’s an epigenetic layer that

that there’s an epigenetic layer that

that there’s an epigenetic layer that alters your DNA and then we found out

alters your DNA and then we found out

alters your DNA and then we found out that this stuff that we used to call

that this stuff that we used to call

that this stuff that we used to call junk DNA that exists between different

junk DNA that exists between different

junk DNA that exists between different genes turns out not to be junk it turns

genes turns out not to be junk it turns

genes turns out not to be junk it turns out to be micro RNAs that can very

out to be micro RNAs that can very

out to be micro RNAs that can very hundreds of genes at one time so it’s

hundreds of genes at one time so it’s

hundreds of genes at one time so it’s really complex and there’s a lot of

really complex and there’s a lot of

really complex and there’s a lot of discovery that’s necessary but actually

discovery that’s necessary but actually

discovery that’s necessary but actually there’s a lot of low-hanging fruit

there’s a lot of low-hanging fruit

there’s a lot of low-hanging fruit that’s already been characterized and we

that’s already been characterized and we

that’s already been characterized and we already know how to work with it and so

already know how to work with it and so

already know how to work with it and so there’s a whole bunch of things that we

there’s a whole bunch of things that we

there’s a whole bunch of things that we can already address with the current

can already address with the current

can already address with the current technology in a very efficient way and

technology in a very efficient way and

technology in a very efficient way and it’s already happening so what’s the

it’s already happening so what’s the

it’s already happening so what’s the next step

next step

next step so I’ve already explained to you

so I’ve already explained to you

so I’ve already explained to you essentially how this works and I

essentially how this works and I

essentially how this works and I hopefully I’ve convinced you that it

hopefully I’ve convinced you that it

hopefully I’ve convinced you that it does work but let me give you some

does work but let me give you some

does work but let me give you some examples of how it’s working today so if

examples of how it’s working today so if

examples of how it’s working today so if you’ve been watching the newspaper you

you’ve been watching the newspaper you

you’ve been watching the newspaper you may have heard that to karti products

may have heard that to karti products

may have heard that to karti products have been approved so these are examples

have been approved so these are examples

have been approved so these are examples of what are called cell therapy or a

of what are called cell therapy or a

of what are called cell therapy or a form of gene therapy they’re basically

form of gene therapy they’re basically

form of gene therapy they’re basically altering cells we pull cells out of your

altering cells we pull cells out of your

altering cells we pull cells out of your body we alter them with viruses we

body we alter them with viruses we

body we alter them with viruses we reprogram their DNA to make them do

reprogram their DNA to make them do

reprogram their DNA to make them do something special and then we put them

something special and then we put them

something special and then we put them back in your body by the way I don’t see

back in your body by the way I don’t see

back in your body by the way I don’t see any timer around here so I apologize if

any timer around here so I apologize if

any timer around here so I apologize if I go over but anyway the so we we put

I go over but anyway the so we we put

I go over but anyway the so we we put them back in your body to do various

them back in your body to do various

them back in your body to do various jobs in your body and in the case of

jobs in your body and in the case of

jobs in your body and in the case of Carty what we’re doing is we’re taking

Carty what we’re doing is we’re taking

Carty what we’re doing is we’re taking out T cells which are the natural

out T cells which are the natural

out T cells which are the natural hunter-killer cells in your body that

hunter-killer cells in your body that

hunter-killer cells in your body that could wipe out anything anything that

could wipe out anything anything that

could wipe out anything anything that they turn their attention on they’ll

they turn their attention on they’ll

they turn their attention on they’ll kill and what we do is we take any old

kill and what we do is we take any old

kill and what we do is we take any old t—cell that comes out of your body and

t—cell that comes out of your body and

t—cell that comes out of your body and I don’t mean we cuz other companies but

I don’t mean we cuz other companies but

I don’t mean we cuz other companies but they put on the way that it decides what

they put on the way that it decides what

they put on the way that it decides what to pay attention to is something called

to pay attention to is something called

to pay attention to is something called an antigen receptor so you have these

an antigen receptor so you have these

an antigen receptor so you have these t-cells and you’ll have an infinite

t-cells and you’ll have an infinite

t-cells and you’ll have an infinite repertoire of these T cells you have T

repertoire of these T cells you have T

repertoire of these T cells you have T cells that are ready for anything

cells that are ready for anything

cells that are ready for anything diseases that you’ve never seen as a

diseases that you’ve never seen as a

diseases that you’ve never seen as a matter of fact most of the T cells will

matter of fact most of the T cells will

matter of fact most of the T cells will be born with you and will die with you

be born with you and will die with you

be born with you and will die with you never having seen the disease that they

never having seen the disease that they

never having seen the disease that they were looking for their entire life long

were looking for their entire life long

were looking for their entire life long but if they do meet that disease they’re

but if they do meet that disease they’re

but if they do meet that disease they’re amazingly effective what they do is that

amazingly effective what they do is that

amazingly effective what they do is that antigen receptor will send some surface

antigen receptor will send some surface

antigen receptor will send some surface protein it will get excited it’ll eat

protein it will get excited it’ll eat

protein it will get excited it’ll eat whatever that invader is could be

whatever that invader is could be

whatever that invader is could be bacteria could be a viral particle it

bacteria could be a viral particle it

bacteria could be a viral particle it could even be a cancerous cell and then

could even be a cancerous cell and then

it’ll get excited and stimulated and

it’ll get excited and stimulated and it’ll go back to the lymph nodes and

it’ll go back to the lymph nodes and

it’ll go back to the lymph nodes and it’ll bring back an army of itself to
