Sharing the full history of #GeneticCounseling will help forge a better future for the profession, says student Samantha Betterman. Read her perspective on how to paint a fuller picture for the next generation of genetic counselors: https://t.co/W3MU9FRvOe #GeneChat

@ElashaeGC all the time!! Standardized patients are tough since the scenarios can be very challenging and you feel pressure to be perfect, but no one is! It helped me to always fall back on knowing “I’m still learning” - take it in stride and use the tough moments to push you forward!

[BlackInGenetics @BlackInGenetics]

We're proud to offer a fellowship for Black students seeking careers in genetics! Applications are open to undergraduate and graduate students currently enrolled (or enrolled by 8.1.23) in the United States and are due 7.3.23.

@aishuarjun @GoodGenesGC ok 👏🏾 to Carla but also, can I take a moment for the bookshelf?? stunning!

[Harleigh @CGCHarleighQ]

Proud Gen Z genetic counselor here! 🙋‍♀️ So refreshing to hear positive things being said ab this generation rather than the usual negatives. Proud of this generation for prioritizing DEIJ, & excited for the future of the profession as we focus on EIJ not JUST diversity. #NSGC22

@Kelsie_McVeety Unfortunely yes, very limited live virtual content, but from what I understand, we will have access to other sessions once they’re recorded and uploaded (timeline idk), and that we can still get CEUs from watching those recordings

[KU Cancer Center @KUcancercenter]

I’m a new GC helping to start an HCM Clinic of Excellence. If any GC works in an HCM Clinic or other cardio speciality clinic, I would love to connect!

@emmaasnyder19 i’ve always (and forever will) use mechanical pencils!! my loyalty runs deep

[Elizabeth Countee @elizcountee]

@MichelleHackbar Thank you!! Definitely such a relief 🤗

[Elizabeth Countee @elizcountee]

some thoughts after passing boards: 1) i’m so grateful to be done and be able to move on but 2) frustrating that I spent so much time and emotional energy on a test that is really not the best assessment of my competence as a GC

[Elizabeth Countee @elizcountee]

So excited for the upcoming seminar @QueeringCancer! In the spirit of pride🌈 please consider attending / donating!

still reeling from the new doc on netflix #OurFather (for many, many reasons !! ) and how it’s given me a new way to view the potential impact of #DTC ancestry test results … my jaw is sore from being on the floor for 1.5 hours 😅

[Genetic Counselors @GeneticCouns]

We’re deeply concerned about the leaked #SCOTUS draft opinion that would overturn Roe and Casey and stand by our position statement on reproductive freedom, supporting the right of all individuals to make reproductive choices, including having access to safe abortion. #GeneChat
