Today is #MPSAwareness day. MPS and ML affect children and adults. Some have treatments but none have cures. Learn about these genetic conditions and how you can help!
Looking forward to sharing our love of our #MPSML community as we lead up to May 15th! Show us your love by posting yourself in purple on 5/15! 💜 🚀 💜 #MPSAwareness2024 #BetterTogether #CureSupportAdvocate #ItsAboutTime #BlastOffForACure

Hello everybody! Get ready, because next week is #MedicalGeneticsAwareness week! Be ready to get answers to all your burning questions. Such as, what is a geneticist? Can I get my genome sequenced for $100? And our favorite, what genetics careers are there?

A friendly reminder on #RareDiseaseDay that if you only ever listen for the hoofbeats of horses, you will miss entire herds of zebras While each individual condition may be rare, in aggregate the thousands of esoteric illnesses affect millions of patients! 🦓 🦓 🦓
