This is for all the marbles! Come watch the Final GENEius Challenge Round at 9:45 AM in West Exhibit Hall B. Over 4 days at #ACMGMtg25 the field of 9 geneticists & genetic counselor trainees has been whittled down to 3 contestants. Now it’s time for the championship match!

@prof_dasgupta I can have lots of favorites, right?! (If I get all my trainees to come to @APHMG1 then it will be the real pinnacle!)

I’m #joinACMG — my favorite meeting of the year! I went to my first meeting in 2012, and now am on the Program Committee. It’s the best meeting for networking in genetics and staying on top of cutting edge genomics! (These are my people!) #iamamedicalgeneticist 🧬

Disclosing a genetic diagnosis like NF1 to a child can be challenging. A new #Perspectives article shows how a children’s book called “Super Emerson” supports the disclosure process. The book and other resources are free through @ChildrensTumor: https://t.co/VvnsO3yK8H

Members of the @UABGenetics team went to Selma for an educational retreat to learn about the health disparities patients face in rural parts of Alabama. Various topics were discussed in an effort to educate primary providers and build a relationship with rural providers.

Big thanks to the amazing @united flight crew of 5815 from Denver to BHM tonight. I lost an AirPod deep inside my seat and co-pilot Chase Shipman used a pen to fish it out! 🤩✈️🙏

They got us home safely AND went above and beyond!
