PTEN is a tumor suppressor gene. When mutated at birth a patient is at higher risk for many #cancers and #autism. our mission: treatments for PHTS, patient 1st
Today is Rare Cancer Day. We are all faced with a rare syndrome that causes common cancers. PTEN may be rare, but its impact isn't; it increases risk for cancers that can affect thousands.
Together, we're building awareness, advancing research, and proving that even the rarest voices can create the loudest change. #pten @followers #phts @RareDiseases #raredisease #cancer
Rare syndromes. Common cancers. Uncommon courage.

Attending #nordsummit! This is one of our favorite events to learn, connect, and grow! Grateful for the team @RareDiseases! We wouldnโt miss this even though we are hosting our summit in Huntsville this Wednesday!! #pten
We lost our Champion this week. @CharisEngMDPhD was a force and we are better for knowing her and promise to continue her legacy championing her beloved #PTEN cause. She would say โOnward and Upward!โ So that is what we will do. @ClevelandClinic
@Delta delayed my international flight by 7 hours, impacting my transportation home, and offered no alternative without a fee. Sylvester claims it will take 24 hrs to get a call back from his supervisor. Is there anyone with @delta that can call me about this problem? @NTSB
