An insightful article in WIRED Greece is exploring a different way of thinking about drug discovery for protein misfolding diseases. Instead of simply blocking or eliminating a problematic protein, the idea is to change its behavior to shift it away from harmful structures and towards more functional ones. What makes this approach particularly interesting is…
