With the first marketing authorization application for a biosimilar monoclonal antibody now under consideration at the European Medicines Agency, what are the critical issues for regulators?

Accounting for errors arising from different high-throughput sequencing platforms and those arising from the approaches used to call variants are at the center of a controversy in RNA editing.
Petsch et al. apply mRNA vaccination for the first time to infectious disease, demonstrating immunogenicity and/or protective effects against influenza virus in mice, ferrets and pigs.
Lee et al. use neural crest precursor cells derived from patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells to screen a small-molecule library for compounds that correct the cellular phenotype of familial dysautonomia.
