Grateful for the chance to dialogue with our lawmakers from both sides of the aisle on this! 🧬 🔬 🤝
Yesterday, members of our Program Committee took to Capitol Hill to advocate for robust #NIHfunding and the future of biomedical research. Their message to lawmakers: science matters — and so does sustained research funding. #ASHG

Great talk from @precision_ru @MedicalCollege at @ChampalimaudF who reminded us of the story of Nic Volker, who underwent the first actionable whole exome sequencing at Wisconsin. Of course there is a @matthewherper column on his story (from 2011): forbes.com/sites/matthewherp…
