Currently, healthcare providers only receive a limited education of rare diseases. It can take up to five years to diagnose a patient with a rare disease. Increased education for healthcare providers could improve patient care. #MedGeneEd23

Careers in Genomics Day! We couldn’t run our @StJudeResearch pharmacogenomics clinical trials (https://t.co/1YOx7bzDzo) without our research nurse colleagues, like Katie Duncan, BSN, RN! Katie educates families and is the face of pharmacogenomics for our patients. #MedGeneEd23

[GenomeBC @GenomeBC]

Did you know that #Pharmacogenomics can help patients living with depression.

You can hear this from a patient partner and researcher on our podcast "Nice Genes!"

Pharmacogenomics uses information about a person's genetic makeup (or genome) to choose the drugs and drug doses that are likely to work best for that person. #MedGeneEd23

[National Human Genome Research Institute @genome_gov]

Until recently, drugs have been developed with the idea that they work pretty much the same in every body. But genomic research has changed that "one size fits all" approach and opened the door to more personalized methods of using and developing treatments! #MedGeneEd23

[Trina Walker @RedlerTrina]

Check out Healthcare Provider Genomic Education Week!! Nursing Genomics project group Q&A video and session will be June 7th 10-11am ET. Register for our event and many more below! Also check out our new FAQ (https://t.co/BjryyoRy4F). #medgeneed23 #creightonnurse #isong_news

[Eric Green @NHGRI_Director]

Did you know that your genome sequence can influence how you respond to certain medications? Pharmacogenomics involves tailoring choices about medications based on genomic information. #MedGeneEd23
