“People with Down's syndrome have particular susceptibilities for some diseases like leukemias and auto-immune disorders, ... We believe this new technology will help us work out why this is, and what to do about it. It is not going to lead to a cure, but we hope it will help us to improve therapies for the health issues that result.”
“[The work would have implications for wider medical research.] People with Down's syndrome suffer from the same diseases as the rest of the population, but they are particularly susceptible, ... Research that helps people with Down's syndrome will help the rest of us.”
