Today’s #SCOTUS decision is alarming. We believe all pregnant people deserve care, including safe access to abortion. Board-certified professionals provide evidence-based, unbiased info that allows patients to make informed reproductive choices. #GeneChat (1/2)

Today and every day, we stand in solidarity with the transgender community and recognize all those who have lost their lives to anti-transgender violence. It’s crucial we, within NSGC and the groups we serve, support our transgender genetic counselors and patients. #TDOR #GCchat

Great #NSGC21 Janus lecture on "You Can Never Feel My Pain”: The History and the Future of Sickle Cell Disease from @barb_DNA_GC! Adding my adaptation of the data from Farooq (I'm a visual learner) that emphasizes the disproportionate funding of CF over SCD relative to incidence.

So excited to hear from our amazing Janus speaker today, @Barb_DNA_GC and her talk: “You Can Never Feel My Pain”: The History and the Future of Sickle Cell Disease It's fitting that NSGC fell in September this year during #SickleCellAwarenessMonth #NSGC21

Race can be used to study social differences, but *not* to study biological differences. Critical distinction #gcchat @GoodGenesGC @ElizFiegCGC 🙏🏼
