@ao_genetics Ambry is having a boards review session!

Also - practice exams. Learning how to take the exam and recognize the types of questions is 🔑

Margo Gallegos, MS, CGC, Genomic Science Liaison, was a genetic counseling student in 2013. She reflects on the rapid growth of genetic testing. Her experience shows how this decision created a whole new world of information. #KeepGenesFree

Ten years ago, the Supreme Court made a momentous decision about your genetic information. Justices ruled naturally occurring gene sequences cannot be patented by corporations. This week we will look back at the decision and hear from people who played a role. #KeepGenesFree

Well, hon, there’s one vendor who won’t be at the 2023 HonFest — Planned Parenthood of Maryland.
HonFest organizers said PPM now represents a "hot topic"issue, making them too controversial for a vendor booth. @BaltimoreBanner

Last month, I proudly signed into law the Trans Health Equity Act.

By signing this act into law, we took a clear stand as a people and state: Transgender people are welcome here, they are part of the fabric of Maryland, and we will not bend to hateful attacks from extremists.

At Ambry, exome patients are a Patient for Life as we continuously reanalyze patient data and proactively issue reclassification reports as new genes are discovered. This initiative has reclassified 5% of previously negative reported exome results. https://t.co/2kAgBkWnrk
