Simona Zompì<p>I understand and support Dr. Peter Marks’ decision to resign from the <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/FDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FDA</span></a> and at the same time I’m deeply saddened as he has been supporting the advancement of novel cell and gene therapies I have been directly working on. I have been admiring his leadership, heard him speaking at many conferences and I am even more admirative now that he came forward saying that Kennedy Jr’s stance on <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/vaccines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vaccines</span></a> is irresponsible and a danger to <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/publichealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publichealth</span></a>.
