Article content ABOUT SATELLOS BIOSCIENCE INC. Article content Satellos is a clinical-stage drug development company focused on restoring natural muscle repair and regeneration in degenerative muscle diseases. Through its research, Satellos has developed SAT-3247, a first-of-its-kind, orally administered small molecule drug designed to address deficits in muscle repair and regeneration. SAT-3247 targets AAK1, a key protein that Satellos has identified as capable of replacing the signal normally provided by dystrophin in muscle stem cells to effect repair and regeneration. By restoring this missing dystrophin signal in DMD, SAT-3247 enables muscle stem cells to divide properly and more efficiently, promoting natural muscle repair and regeneration. SAT-3247 is currently in clinical development as a potential disease-modifying treatment initially for DMD. Satellos also is leveraging its proprietary discovery platform MyoReGenX™ to identify additional muscle diseases or injury conditions where restoring muscle repair and regeneration may have therapeutic benefit and represent future clinical development opportunities.

Anishinaabe students learn about science, nature at U of G summer camp

What is our connection to birds, trees, insects and other living creatures on this planet? Those are the kinds of questions children were asked at an Indigenous Youth Exchange program held at the University of Guelph Arboretum. Last week, children of all ages were invited to attend from three Anishinaabe communities. It gave them a taste of what it could be like to pursue post-secondary education in Guelph while keeping them close to traditional teachings. "This is the most educational yet also fun camp that I've been to," said Jolton Pitawanakwat, a camper from Wiikwemkoong Unceded Territory. "I learned a lot about different types of bugs and invertebrates." The campers were at the arboretum for about five days starting Aug. 11 and it was open to kids between the ages of 11 to 17. The program was put together through a partnership between the University of Guelph and three Anishinabeg communities: Wiikwemkoong Unceded Territory, Magnetawan First Nation and Shawanaga First Nation. "I've been to 20 [camps] within these past two years and this was the most educational," said Jordie Roy from Wiikwemkoong Unceded Territory, while admiring a fluffy white hickory tussock moth caterpillar crawl over his hands. "[I learned] things that I actually like... I love animals. I love learning." Land-based learning Campers learned interesting facts about the world around them and also took part in fun outdoor activities like swimming or hiking. The outdoor classes were guided by a variety of instructors from multiple departments at the University of Guelph, focused on science, athletics and agriculture. Thecla Neganegijig from Wiikwemkoong was one of the two Elders at the camp. She says there were a lot of traditional teachings to take away throughout the week. "Part of it is just to learn that we're not [the only ones] here on this Earth walk. We're all connected to Mother Earth and everything here. The trees, the animals, the wildlife, we're all one because we all belong to this Earth to be able to live," she said. "It's a pretty great opportunity to come in, take this trip with the kids to the University of Guelph and check out their nature programs and also for them to check out the university life." Andrew Young is an entomologist and an assistant professor at the University of Guelph's school of environmental sciences. He says the youth exchange program started out as a way to give older youth an on-campus experience to help them decide where they want to go to university. "They're a lot farther from cities and museums and places that have these sorts of resources to get access to [these experiences]," Young said. "Ultimately, the thing that's different is that I'm learning from the elders and community members... and trying to incorporate that into teaching broadly."
