Our Carrier Connections program features a different X-linked condition or community topic each month with the goal to increase awareness of X-linked conditions and how they impact the lives of women and girls. This month, we are highlighting the topic of discussing X-linked inheritance and carrier status with your daughter(s). Today we are chatting with Ali Conn. Ali is a pediatric genetic counselor at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago (all views expressed are her own). She has an undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering, but confirmed that her teenage love for Punnett squares actually was her calling when she graduated from genetic counseling school in 2022. She loves working with pediatric patients and their families, seeking diagnoses for adults with autism, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and will probably show you pictures of her dogs. Carrier Connections is sponsored by Kyowa Kirin and Amgen. For more information about our organization, check out rememberthegirls.org.

An estimated one out of every four Nigerians is a silent carrier of sickle cell disease, a hemoglobin disorder that can cause serious health problems and even death. With recent advancements in genetic testing, many Nigerians won't take the risk of reproducing with other silent carriers or people with the disease. But, as Krithika Varagur reports, love doesn't always accord with the Punnett square. Providing a snapshot of what our “genetic responsibility” could be as prenatal tests proliferate, Varagur sat down with Harper's Magazine senior editor Elena Saavedra Buckley to discuss one couple's story of public health, family, and most of all love in Lagos.

Liz Ewen was just a middle school student when she first came across genetics in her journey, reading a book on Cystic Fibrosis that would basically change her life. That book and her classroom learnings on Punnett squares basically set her on a course for her entire career. She graduated from the University of Connecticut with her Bachelors of Science in Genetics in 2000 and completed her PhD in Molecular Biology from Boston University in 2010. Liz initially went to college thinking she was going to pursue physical therapy as a career path, but then genetics pulled her back in. So much so that she completed her PhD after seven years of grad school and mice models. Hear as Liz recounts her incredible journey from a child in New Jersey to becoming a PhD scientist and now a medical science liaison.

— In March 2016, Codi, the daughter-in-law of Dr. Harold Punnett, one of NervGen's co-founders, fell and became a complete T-11 paraplegic. She has no sensation or function below the level of her belly button and the devastating injury changed the lives of Codi, and the rest of the family. In response to this terrible injury, Dr. Punnett began a personal quest to learn about spinal cord injury. Through his research he discovered a revolutionary nerve regeneration technology of deep biological logic in Dr. Jerry Silver's work at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU). Dr. Silver and Dr. Punnett began a conversation that resulted in the formation of NervGen Pharma Corp. in 2018. Dr. Punnett's hope is that the work performed by NervGen will be able to help Codi and others suffering from paralysis; he is also very excited that the technology may also lead to novel new treatments for other serious neurological conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases.

Human nature and prediction models. We base our perspective of human nature on two-dimensional grids, molding our society and its systems towards these grids. Despite this being the norm, people aren't so clear-cut as to simply be placed into broad labels. So how then, do we categorize human behavior? Is there a better approach to what we have now? Perhaps one that encompasses everyone, while still taking into account the multifaceted nature of a person. In this episode, join Alexander McCaig and Jason Rigby as they tackle human creativity and the variances that make everyone unique. Three-Dimensional People In Two-Dimensional Systems? In the 1960s, a two by two grid was employed by Boston Consulting Group as a model they can show to their clients. Because of its simplicity, it can be easily understood by everyone. More importantly, it is a convenient way to present data. With systems that involve predictable and binary data, using a grid makes sense. However, using a two by two grid is not the best approach when dealing with human behavior. We cannot simply force people into one of the four categories within the grid. A person, whose thoughts and actions are infinitely complex, cannot be placed into a singular label. Everyone is three-dimensional, such as that emotions can't be numerically described, and therefore cannot be placed into two-dimensional grids with a pen and paper. With systems that require labels and measurements, using a grid is indeed the most efficient way to do so. For mapmakers, laying out squares to measure land is easy, because of its two-dimensional nature. For geneticists, the Punnett chart is a simple way to predict chromosomal traits and how they blend together. And so, dealing with predictable components using a grid is common sense. An example of a two by two grid that attempts to categorize human beings is the New York Magazine Approval Matrix. The matrix gets released every week and is a literal grid that places current human events and happenings into one of four categories. They take these incredibly multifaceted aspects of our society and force them to fit within a single two by two grid. The Infinite Variability of A Human Being Humans come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. No matter how small, the tiniest difference in personality or thought processes can develop into entirely different people. Even a single variation in one's environment can create a completely unique experience for a person. With things like predictive traffic models, you can somewhat predict a group of people's general behavior. During the pandemic, however, a traffic model cannot explain the sudden reduction in traffic. Moreover, it cannot predict the outcome of a virus and how it affects traffic in the future. Again, a two-dimensional grid cannot be used to describe a person's thoughts and decisions for their future. For example, a person thinks about a past event. However, this thought relates to how they should act in the future. This causes a shift in ideas and perspective in how they think about themselves. This scenario cannot be described by simply using a two-dimensional system. TARTLE has figured out the commonality between everyone, and that is their inherent uniqueness and creativity. Every person is an outlier compared to everyone else and should be treated as such. Using a Unity Model for a Holistic Approach With that being said, there is a type of system that attempts to approach human uniqueness in an all-encompassing manner. A unity model. An entity should then design systems and models that are for humans, rather than a target demographic. This eliminates the metaphorical walls that divide people into specific groups, without limiting the scope and growth of a given system. Creativity is an inherent trait that is both unique and ubiquitous to everyone. An expressive painter cannot be labeled as “weird” or “crazy” for being creative in their own way. Rather, it is who they are as an individual. A person's label should not be confined within the walls of a grid, but rather a gradient of creativity that cannot be simply described with a word or two. Going back to describing painters, no one should compare one artist's expression with another artist, with each artist being unique on their own. Instead of visualizing a system as a grid, we should instead view it as a spherical model. Imagine plotting a single point on a sphere. If this sphere was rotated, it would still be equal to any other point plotted on the sphere. Closing Thoughts: The Norm of Two-Dimensional Systems Each person should be treated as an absolute uniqueness; a gradient of colors that cannot be defined by binary systems. Everyone is inherently creative, and everyone has experiences and thoughts unique to themselves. Despite our society's norm of placing everyone into clear-cut definitions, we should instead strive to expand our perspective towards the infinite creativity of human nature. Just because everyone has adapted to this norm, does not mean that it is the correct way to describe people. www.tartle.co TCAST is brought to you by TARTLE.

My AP Biology Thoughts Unit 5 HeredityWelcome to My AP Biology Thoughts podcast, my name is CJ and I am your host for episode #102 called Unit 5 Heredity: Different expressions of alleles. Today we will be discussing incomplete dominance, codominance and multiple alleles. Segment 1: Introduction to expression of alleles Alleles are what make us unique, they code us and make us appear the way we are. In simple biology, we learn about how genotype affects phenotype and when we start off on this concept, we visualize a simple set of alleles. And when we first start to learn about alleles, we learn that dominant alleles override and affect the phenotype even if a recessive allele is present. Let's use ear lobes as an example; we can say attached earlobes are recessive and loose are dominant. If the offspring has attached earlobes and both parents have unattached earlobes, we see a perfect example of simple inheritance. We would typically draw out a punnett square. We cannot directly see what's the genotype of the parents, however we can assume that they are both heterozygous due to the nature that their offspring is homozygous recessive. When drawing out the Punnett square, we can see that there is a 50/50 chance that the offspring will have attached earlobes. Segment 2: More About this However, nothing is ever that simple. As you can see, in the world around us, there are more than just two outcomes when it comes to anything living. In most cases, there are many more than just 2 phenotypes. The world is much more complicated than just dominant and recessive. That's where incomplete dominance, codominance and multiple alleles come into play. They show us that there is much more to life than just capital and lowercase letters.To start off, incomplete dominance has the same number of alleles as a standard dominant and recessive genotype. The main difference is that heterozygous organisms no longer just express the dominant allele, they express a phenotype that is in between homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive. A great example of this is some sort of flower. If there are three colors of flower, one red, one white and one pink. The red can be determined as the “dominant” while the white could be “recessive”, making any flower with heterozygous alleles pink. This represents incomplete dominance. And just like incomplete dominance, codominance is only made up of a single set of alleles too. However, instead of the phenotype being somewhere in the middle, for codominance, the phenotype for heterozygous is a mix of the two. Meaning if a species is represented by the genotype of one dominant and one recessive, they are going to express both phenotypes, in their own respective way. Now for when alleles get complicated. When there are multiple alleles, the same rules apply for simple dominance, where the heterozygous only expresses the dominant phenotype. However, there are more alleles that influence the phenotype as well. Depending on the trait, there could be 4 or more alleles that determine what a species looks like. Just like in eye color, where there are 16 different genes that determine what colors your eyes could be. And in theory you could use a Punnett square to determine the predicted offspring phenotypes, but that square would be substantially larger and more complicated as different letters are flying around. Segment 3: Connection to the Course All in all, a variety of things can influence how a species can look. And the different expression of alleles can alter those looks even more. But that's all there for a cause. All of these alleles got there somehow, whether it be natural selection or a random mutation that had the benefit of the doubt. But these alleles can show us whether a recessive trait is more fit for one environment than another. All of this has a purpose, everything happens for a reason, and looking at alleles we can now predict what the outcomes could

We move from our discussion of anatomy into the genetic possibilities of centaurs. Look out Mr. Punnett, we got our own squares. How are centaur born? Can two centaur have a human baby? Two humans have a horse? Oh you better believe it!
We live on a planet of finite resources so it makes a lot of sense to make the maximum possible use of all the resources we have. This is the fundamental tenet underlying the Circular Economy (which we have talked about previously on this podcast), and it is also the principle that Rheaply is building a platform to address.Rheaply is a startup working with the SAP.io foundry in New York and they have developed a platform to allow organisations maximise use of their assets, saving money in the process, and avoiding unnecessarily sending items to landfill.I invited Garr Punnett, Rheaply's Chief of Staff, and Head of Sustainability to join me on the podcast to come on the podcast and explain how Rheaply works. We had a fascinating conversation which I totally enjoyed, as I'm sure you will too.If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn. Audio messages will get played (unless you specifically ask me not to).To learn how supply chain leaders improve end-to-end supply chain visibility, download the research study of 1,000 COO's and Chief Supply Chain Officers – “Surviving and Thriving How Supply Chain Leaders minimize risk and maximize opportunities”.And if you want to know more about any of SAP's Digital Supply Chain solutions, head on over to www.sap.com/digitalsupplychain and if you liked this show, please don't forget to rate and/or review it.

Seth Rotberg found out as a 15-year old that his mom had a rare neurological genetic disease known as Huntington's disease. Five years later, he tested positive for the disease. Today I'm talking with Seth about secrets, strengths and recognizing the power of community on Get Social Health. Connect with Seth at the links below: LinkedIn Twitter Website TEDx Natick Interview Transcript Janet: 00:01 Seth Rotberg found out as a 15-year old that his mom had a rare neurological genetic disease known as Huntington's disease. Five years later, he tested positive for the disease. Today I'm talking with Seth about secrets, strengths and recognizing the power of community on Get Social Health. Announcer: 00:21 Welcome to Get Social Health, a conversation about social media and how it's being used to help hospitals, social practices, healthcare practitioners and patients connect and engage via social media. Get Social Health, brings you conversations with professionals actively working in the field and provides real-life examples of healthcare, social media in action. Here is your host, Janet Kennedy. Janet: 00:48 Welcome to Get Social Health. My name is Janet Kennedy and I'm the host of the podcast in case you didn't know. Today I have a special guest on who is going to share a very personal story of his own health journey, and how he is using that experience and his situation to make the journey for a lot of other people. Seth Rotberg is a rare disease advocate and a motivational speaker and he's got a really amazing story to tell, so I'm happy to have him join me on the podcast today, Seth. Good morning. Seth: 01:20 Good Morning Janet. How's everything going? Janet: 01:23 Well, as we spoke before, I'm getting over a little bit of a cold, so I'm going to sound a little funky to my usual listeners today. But it's a beautiful day in North Carolina where we have eight inches of snow. Also a rare situation. Seth: 01:38 Yeah. Well, I can't complain myself. Being up north in DC, you know, it's nice and warm here. I think 30 degrees? Janet: 01:51 You are in Washington DC now, but you are a Massachusetts boy. We were talking about both sox and teams up in the Boston area. So tell me a little bit about where you grew up. Seth: 02:09 Well, first off, I do have to say it's exciting to grow up with a lot of gray Boston sports, especially with the Red Sox winning the world series this past year. I grew up about 30 minutes west of Boston in a town called Natick and I'll just jump right into it. Seth: 02:27 My mom had this rare neurological and genetic disease not as Huntington's disease is also known as HD. Similar to having ALS, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's all into one disease, slowly deteriorating a person's physical and cognitive abilities and unfortunately currently there's no cure. I found out my mom had this when I was 15 years old when she was officially diagnosed. However, prior to that she was like most people misdiagnosed for about seven years, was a long time to for someone to be told that they have depression or bipolar disorder and then find out it's even worse than that, which is a disease without a cure. Growing up it was very difficult, especially as a young person, which is kind of where we'll talk about later. The work I'm doing today focusing on providing resources and support for young people impacted by rare chronic condition, more importantly in the Huntington's disease space. And then we can talk later about my professional career trying to connect patients and caregivers. Don't one another anonymously in the health space. Janet: 03:37 Well this is something that is also a hereditary disease? Seth: 03:43 Yes. You mentioned hereditary and when I first learned about it, and I'm going to take everyone back to biology class where you do those Punnett squares. Do you remember that at all, Janet? Like the Punnett squares, we have the match like the upper case and lower case like the dominant and recessive. Janet: 03:59 Are we going to talk about peas in a minute? Seth: 04:02 Yeah, we might. I mean my thought was with a disease they say, well if your Dad's dominant recessive. And so when I did it, it was like, , I'm in the clear I'm all set, but that's not how a lot of these rare diseases work, especially Huntington's where I'm at a 50/50 chance of inheriting it. It's a simple flip of a coin and it's tough to really look at that and say, well where's my future going to end up? Am I going to end up just like my mom or am I going to end up props testing negative and having survivor's guilt, and that's when I ultimately decided at the age of 20 to test for Huntington's disease where I found out I tested positive. I'm a gene carrier and one day know that I'm going to end up just like my mom just slowly deteriorating both physically and mentally and not much I can do at the time. Janet: 05:00 So is it a given? If you have the gene, that's it. Seth: 05:05 That's it. Yeah. I mean, unfortunately, that's how it is. And what's unique about Huntington's disease is that they can test it, they know where it is, but it's such a unique gene that you would think that they'd be like, here's how we cure it, but of course like any rare disease is a lot tougher than just saying, hey, we're going to pull it out or do something like gene therapy or DNA silencing and hope for the best. But at the end of the day, Janet, it's a 100 percent. Given that within maybe 15 or so years I'm going to start developing symptoms and there it is. Janet: 05:47 You were a very young man when you were brave enough to get tested. But I understand you also didn't share that information with very many people. Seth: 05:57 Yeah. That's something I wish I did and I think the challenge was knowing that my mom was still alive and didn't want to put more on her plate. I didn't want her to suffer even more than she was. My Dad being a caregiver, not wanting to worry him, put an additional load onto him. And then having an older sister, I felt like she may feel the pressure to also get tested. So I actually only told a few friends and over time felt a little bit more comfortable telling more and more friends. But telling my family was very tough and it, it was challenging because I value family a lot and I, I was trying to do what's best for them and not having them worry about me, which again, it's, it's a difficult point because it's your family and you want, you want to be open with them, but at the same time you're like, , well how much do I share with them and how comfortable am I going to feel afterwards? Janet: 07:02 And that's kind of where I was at at the age of 20. And it actually took about three years. I really thought it took about two years when I had to like trace it back. And I'm like, wow. Actually took about three years until I told my Dad and my sister and then told my family. And I did this TED-X talk earlier this year in January. And it was like what I mentioned, there's coming out of this like genetic diseases closet where I was open about it and I just felt like I didn't have to hide that big secret. Have you ever been ever had that like big secret or like a secret that you're like, you just can't share with anyone or are you just not sure how people are going to react? Janet: 07:38 Well and it's also the fear that that gets built out of proportion about how people are gonna react. You spend so much time thinking about how they're going to react that sometimes it's nowhere near as bad as you imagined. Seth: 07:51 No, absolutely. And that was it. I, I figured if I was to tell them, my Dad first off might try to talk me out of it and saying, "Oh why do you want to get tested so early?" And I knew this is something I wanted to do because similar to my Mom, I would maybe drop my phone or forget a conversation or something that my friend just told me and I would think, "is this Huntington's or is this just me being a 19, 20-year-old college student who just happens to do this?" And so it was just mentally draining that I didn't want to live with the unknown. I like to plan ahead. I'm definitely one of those planners. So I wanted to know what my future held. And again, like you said, Janet, it's something that, I didn't know how people react, but I also emphasize the importance of making this decision on your own because it is a very personal decision. Janet: 08:49 I can't imagine what it must have been like, not to tell. I'm sort of known as not being able to keep a secret in my family that I feel like people ought to know things. So I cannot imagine keeping a secret for two to three years about something like this. But what I'm really curious about is. So you actually have identified that you have a life-terminating disease, an illness that has no cure. Are you talking to medical professionals? Are you talking to other people who have the condition? Who do you confide in because that sounds like a really big burden for your dorm mate too. Seth: 09:25 It definitely is and for me again, I was very fortunate to have some good friends who were very supportive and if-if I go back in time I definitely would have told my family from the beginning because the importance of having that support system and making sure it had the right resources because I didn't go through genetic counseling, which again, I always emphasize when I do other talks about the importance of it because they make the process more manageable a lot easier. Nothing is going to be easy, but if you can make it somewhat easier, more comfortable, it does go a long way in the long run. Janet: 10:04 Can you explain what exactly is genetic counseling? Because hey, you got what you got. So what does that really mean? Seth: 10:11 So also I'm going to open. I hope I do a good job explaining what genetic counseling is, but it's somewhat new compared at least to a lot of the main specialists, but it's done by a genetic counselor, someone who focuses on helping someone who has to figure out whether or not they should go through testing what their options were. Talking about family planning, talking about maybe life insurance or health care. So a lot of things, that we really, especially the young person, don't really say. I don't know. I never thought about, oh, should I get life insurance or long term disability care or family planning options. I originally just thought, well I can either have a kid or adopt. And then I learned later learned about IVF with PGD, which is a pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, which tests the eggs and makes sure that they're free of any genetic conditions. Seth: 11:16 And then I also found out about the whole idea of like sperm donation. So, what's funny Janet, is I was doing this talk to genetic counselors and I mentioned the whole option of sperm donation that I found out from speaking with a genetic counselor and it got me thinking right away. I was like, well which of my friends are going to be willing to donate their sperm or do I go after one of our famous Boston sports, Tom Brady or Gronk or David Ortiz or someone like that and just say, hey guys, I know you don't know me but I need a favor. Janet: 11:58 Well, that's unusual and I'm not sure if there is a professional athlete for sperm donation organization, but maybe you should be the one that starts it. Seth: 12:09 Yeah. I'm not sure how they would feel about it, to be honest, but I was just more of like the idea of knowing if there's any alternatives, what are the options? And honestly just counseling you to make sure that you have the right resources and support. So when I say support, I'm not just saying family, but also friends, maybe it's professional support such as a therapist, like high trust. And then with the resources, making sure you have the right educational content to social and emotional resources. Maybe it's some type of program or service you're involved with. Maybe it's connecting to a local nonprofit. These are a lot of things that I wish medical professionals did more of, which is simply saying, like here's your results, but here are some great organizations that you should reach out to for more help or here's, you know, I'm going to follow up with you in six months just to check in. Seth: 13:00 These are like little things that I think go a long way because you know, when I, when I learned about it, I was a little lost. I didn't know what those next steps were at first. But as soon as I met some other people in the Huntington's disease space, I was like, I want to get more involved. I want to do more. And I used my results as motivation to fight back, to not give up hope. And that's kind of led me to my journey of where I've been doing all these talks. Especially this past year I've. I've lost track of how many different talks I've done, but I would say at least a dozen talks this past year. Janet: 13:35 How did you connect with people in the HD space? Seth: 13:39 The first time I connected with someone it was because I ran my own throne through basketball charity event called hoops for Huntington's with one of my good friends and we would look into figuring out where the money's going to go and I got connected to a staff member for the Huntington's Disease Society of America and a national nonprofit focusing on HD and then from there I just started connecting with other people, but one of my friends, she told me about this national convention and how there's other young people and they had space and that kind of opened my eyes and say, oh wow. I'm not alone in this fight. I'm not the only young person who has to deal with the everyday challenges, but more importantly, I was always connected to older adults who had different needs than a younger person where an older adult adult may already have his career, his or her career, their family, a house where I have to figure out all of those things, plus how to cope with it in addition to like romantic relationships, personal family and friends, relationships, things like that where it was a lot easier to relate to someone around my age who understood what I was going through. Janet: 14:55 And now, you're a part of a more formal organization at the Huntington's disease organization. Seth: 15:02 Yeah. So I now sit on the board for the Huntington's disease youth organization. What the young people call "HD Yo". Our mission is to support young people impacted by Huntington's disease worldwide. So we put on camps all over the world. We've done at camp in Europe. We'd done a camp in North America. We'd done a camp in Australia - New Zealand. But when, when I say youth, I mean more young people, so young adults. It could be up to the age of 35 years old and ultimately we, the organization was started because we saw that there was this missing piece where they're young people weren't getting the attention or the support they needed and we wanted to bridge that gap. We wanted to fill that missing piece, so not only do we provide camp, but we actually provide educational content on our website in 14 different languages. I was like, wow, that's, that's amazing where we can not just do it in English and Spanish and Italian, but now you know, potentially I think Chinese, a Dutch and German. Seth: 16:09 I think in Russian it's just like all these different languages and then on top of that we also have a director of youth services actually in the DC area, but she's our Director of Youth Services in the US where she helps young people make sure they get the right support and resources and connect them to the right doctors and specialists and I think that's just amazing work that I never had growing up. I didn't have HD YO. I didn't have any of these educational content that I wish I had and said, I just googled, you know, what is Huntington's disease? And I think that's what everyone does when they learn about a new condition is they google it and then they see all these big words and they get intimidated and then they either try to learn more or they say, "wow, this is too much." Seth: 16:52 I can't do this. And that's kind of where I was at his as. Especially as a 15 year old,15-year-old, , this is too much. I don't want to deal with this. I want to just enjoy my childhood. Which I essentially lost out on the whole idea of being normal, which is a whole. Just is not even a thing these days is the whole idea of being normal and it was definitely challenging. And, and so what my goal is, especially being a board member for HD YO, is honestly being that, having the opportunity to share my story, to inspire others, but also to connect people, young people to the right resources. So connecting them to the services we provide are making sure I can make sure I can connect them with another young person in their area or just making sure they know that they're not alone in their fight against HD. Janet: 17:46 I am wondering a little bit about the actual manifestation of the disease. So you obviously knew very clearly that you had the potential for having it because of your mother, but is that how most of these other young people are finding out that they are also carrying the gene for HD through family members or his symptoms? Wouldn't symptoms appear in as young as the teens or twenties? Seth: 18:15 It really depends, Janet. I think their's is even a more rare form of Huntington's disease, which is the juvenile version. So how it works is everyone has actually everyone has like a Huntington gene, but there's the, what we call it, the CAG repeats your, your CAG repeats and when there's a mutation, that's when the Huntington gene can expand and then that's when you actually have the disease itself. So usually the normal gene per se is anything under, I want to say 26. It always, I feel like it varies every time I talk to someone knew about it, but usually about, I think I would say under 26, 27 is normal. And then there's this gray area. The gray area is a little confusing because it's like, I think it's, I want to say like 28 to 35, but like a section of that means that you have a 25 percent chance of showing symptoms later in life were another part is like, oh, you might still have a chance of showing symptoms, but more importantly this gray area is saying, you tested negative. Seth: 19:26 There's a small chance that you might show symptoms like in your sixties or seventies, but like very little. But the thing is if you're in this gray area, your kids can still be at risk and I think that's a thing that's not addressed enough. Going through testing, it's either , you're positive or negative. So anything over, I would say 36 and above. I believe it's 36 or above means that you have you carry the gene. The higher it is, the more progressive it is. So this juvenile version is 60 or above, so I unfortunately I've had friends who are in the juvenile stage and they're repeats are in the sixties, seventies and the eighties. And it's tough. It's sad to see, you know. I lost a friend of mine, her name was Megan, at the age of 26 to the juvenile version of this. But what Megan really taught me, not to, not necessarily to grieve, but more to say, here's how you gotta live your life. Seth: 20:23 You got to live in the moment and live with a positive outlook because that's what makes any situation a better one. And that really stuck with me after she passed away to make me honestly. She was one of the reasons why I wanted to share my story. It was because she was, even though she was struggling and dealing with the symptoms of HD, she's still shared her story. She still always had a smile on her face and that's what got me going. But essentially when people learn about it, learn about it because their parent has it most of the time. But the other challenging thing is how do you talk to it? How do you talk to a child about it? With my parents, for example, they just said, hey, your mom has Huntington's disease. It's a rare disease from what I recall again, but that was it. Janet: 21:13 And so that's something else that I think HBO is trying to work on. We have some staff as well as volunteers who have done a tremendous job on explaining, are working with people of how to talk to kids about HD. We actually have a fellow board member of mine, her name is Dr Bonnie had again, and I hope I pronounced your last name right, but she is. She wrote a book about how to talk to kids about HD, which I think is amazing. I think it can relate to other conditions of how do you talk to your kids about any rare disease, any genetic condition. Janet: 21:45 And that's so important. I think knowing how to communicate to children and children at various ages. You know how you would talk to a elementary age child is different from a middle or high school age child. You know, how much can they absorb, how much should they absorb, what, what is going to empower them to not live in fear and to have the knowledge they need is a very tricky thing and it takes a very good communicator to understand how to deliver that information at various ages. Seth: 22:18 I couldn't agree more. I think it definitely, you have to communicate it. You have to be transparent. You have to be honest and that's the challenge is you don't know how someone's going to react similar to my situation wants to tell him. My Dad, my sister, they were fine with it. They were like, oh, you know, thanks for telling me. But they're just like how did you hide this? It wasn't like, Hey, I'm mad at you. It's like, oh, thanks for sharing. And they didn't treat me any differently. That's the biggest thing is there's a stigma behind genetic conditions in my opinion, where people don't know how others will react when you tell them and that's I think the difficult part is even having. I don't have children, but being a child of a parent I can relate to saying , like yeah, it was probably tough for them to tell me I'm glad they did tell me I wish they told me more, but now I can help other maybe parents work with figuring out ways to tell their children are making sure that these children wants to knowing about it, are these young people who know about it, that that they're provided those educational content and going to the right places for learning more about the condition. Janet: 23:30 Well, I understand that you've taken your condition, your passion and your desire to really impact others into your career. Seth: 23:41 I have and it's pretty crazy because. Give you a little bit background. My background is in nonprofit work. I was doing a lot of work previously in youth development, working with under resourced students in Boston and then going to Grad graduate school in Chicago the last few years to get a Master's in nonprofit management and I really thought I would either be staying in Chicago, are moving back to Boston, working for a nonprofit. We're focusing on, especially high school students. I felt like that was kind of my calling of connecting with them, working with them, building that relationship up with them, but then again what happened this past year has been an amazing just experience. As mentioned before. I did this TED-X talk, sharing my story in front of 800 people in my hometown back in January and just kind of took off from there. Seth: 24:34 I was able to connect with so many other people in the rare disease space. Understanding the needs of young people and then trying to learn about just different organizations and what they do to help support those impacted by rare chronic condition. And that's when actually I came across this company called Inspire who I heard briefly about in the past because they were doing some, this initiative called experts by experience where they would bring in people to share their, obviously their experience of living with a rare chronic condition and you know, next thing you know, I'm working for them. And to give you a background on what inspired does is where a social health online network connecting patients and caregivers to one another anonymously. And what's, what's cool is we actually have staff here who moderate our online communities, 24/seven. So you know, they're taking shifts, night shifts, morning shifts just to make sure to moderate for kind of being that, that online police in a way. Seth: 25:41 So making sure people aren't potentially giving out personal medical advice. Any type of spam, any of those arguments that go back and forth. We think it's important for people to feel like they can connect with one another and know that they're not alone alone in their fight and we actually have over 100 different nonprofit partners and that's kind of where my role comes in as a partnership's manager is trying to build not only our current partnerships but new partnerships with these nonprofits so that we can build these online communities for their patients and caregivers to connect with one another. Again, that whole idea of being anonymous is something that I've learned more and more about, especially in this role of, you know, you can go to an Instagram, you can go to Facebook, go to Twitter, and I think it's great that there's different social media options, but I think what makes our site unique is that idea of being anonymous. Seth: 26:35 Idea of having it moderated by professor, by our staff and we're kind of the experts on the online moderation. But that's why we bring into nonprofits because they're the ones with the resources. Making sure that they know where to go when they're looking for educational resources and content or even services that the nonprofit partner may provide. The biggest thing that I always stress is one, I'm not just trying to sell a nonprofit partner on on this, but more importantly, as you know, I've lived the experience. I grew up in a family impacted by the rare disease. I know what it's like. And so making sure that they're being able to have that opportunity to connect with others who know what they're going through. That's the, that's the biggest thing because I didn't, I didn't have anyone growing up until actually to be honest, until about the age of 19 when I was in college and when I was actually a sophomore in college, just turning 20. Seth: 27:34 Someone who lived down the hall from me in my dorm, said, oh, my friends come and visit. And her mom also had HD. And as soon as I met her, I felt like I knew her for years because I didn't have to explain myself over and over and over again. She just knew. She knew what was going on. And it was just great to know that I didn't have to live in isolation. I had someone else I could talk to about this and of course that grew over time, but that's Kinda why I always say, hey listen, I'm not here to tell you just to do it to do it, but here's an opportunity for those who may want to connect anonymously, like a username, think of like AOL or AIM where you have that user name and then if you want to connect more you can message them or add them as a friend or, or just, you know, you can share more if you want, but it also gives them the opportunity to share as much or as little as you want. Janet: 28:25 I took a quick look at Inspire and I lift up Huntington's disease and I know that there's almost a one and a half million members of Inspire, of which 389 are part of the Huntington's disease community. So when you talk about it being rare, that's amazingly rare. What a great resource to put together people who need to find other folks like themselves. Seth: 28:52 As you can see with the Huntington's disease community, it's a lot smaller than some of our other ones. And that's because of course Alan doesn't have a nonprofit partner yet. That's something in the works, but I think, you know, when you have that partner you can, they can also help drive people to it and make sure people know about this resource with Huntington's disease. There's 30,000 people in the US who have another 200,000 plus who are at risk. And so yes, I think Inspired is a great platform for Huntington's disease space with other as well as other conditions. But I think when you have a nonprofit partner is going to help drive more people and that. And that's something that I'm really excited to do, especially personally being impacted is, is trying to get potentially other people like myself involved in the conversations within that community on Inspire. Janet: 29:57 You know, one of the things that is happening in my household is that my son has and his father's side of the family have all gotten 23 and Me genetic testing kits now on my side of the family, on the Kennedy side of the family. My Dad's an avid ancestry researcher, so I can tell you that I've got family members that we've discovered all the way back to something or other and that's cool. And so we feel like we pretty much know and understand what's going on on one side of the family. On the other hand, on my son's side of the family, past great-grandfather. They know nothing. They don't know anything who were, when they came over. How many folks are they related to anybody in the world. And so I'm really fascinated with this whole experience and the things you can find out from that. So I'm curious since there's so many sales going on with all these genetic testing platforms related to the holidays, are you all gearing up in January for a lot of folks going? Why I have one getting ready for kind of a rush of people who are now going to start to wonder about some of the things going on in their holiday gift, genetic testing. Seth: 31:09 I think that that's a great question, Janet, and with the whole 23 and Me and learning about your history of your family, it obviously has its pros and cons, but the challenge with 23 and Me and a lot of these other genetic testing kits is again, if you don't have that one to one service, have a genetic counselor. You're not talking to a specialist. You don't know what those next steps are. That's the biggest thing is when someone learns about a diagnosis or learning about them being at risk for something, you always wanted to look at, well, what's my next step in my journey? And if you can connect with other people who have either already gone through that journey or are going through the same path that you are timeless simultaneously. I think it definitely helps make things, again more manageable, but more importantly I stress on the idea of a jag counselor because again, they're going to help provide that support and making sure that you know what your options are, whether you have a jag condition or not. I think the other challenge, again with Huntington's disease, it's so unique that when you're at risk, I definitely think that it's important to go through genetic counseling because you could test negative, but you might have that survivor's guilt or you might test positive and not know what those what to do next and I really just don't know. It's a tough one to answer, but my thought is if you do decide to go through 23 and Me or ancestry.com or any of those other ones, just make sure that, once you do it, there's no looking back. You can't just hit the rewind button and say, I don't want to do this. I don't want to learn about additional potential conditions I may have or that was passed down from my family. So making sure that you know what, what to expect and know what your options are, not only after doing a book prior to doing it and kind of talking to others about your family, about it, maybe friends about it, professional about it, just so that you know what to expect when finding out the results. Janet: 33:33 I think that is such good advice and one of the things I do want to let people know is that in the show notes we'll have a LinkedIn profile and also a link to the talk that he did at TED-X Natick. I thought that was just a really, really interesting presentation and something that people I think really need to listen to because I liked the idea that you've said about coming out of the chronic disease closet. That idea that you don't have to keep this all to yourself. There are other people who can support and help you and don't suffer in silence. Seth: 34:01 I couldn't agree more and Janet, the biggest thing is it takes time, but understanding that you aren't defined by the disease and being defined by who you are as a person. And I actually had one of my good friends, his name's Peter, he and I had this conversation because to be honest with, with dating, you know, when you tell them about your condition, do you say on the first date, you know, the six days, six months in, you don't know how they're going to react, but what he told me, he said, listen, you can't talk about it. It shouldn't. It shouldn't be part of your life every day. And, and it really kind of changed my perception of say he's right. Like even though I am doing these public speaking talks and I'm doing a lot of work in the HIV space, at the end of the day I don't need to tell them about it because, and I say that in a nice way. I'm saying I don't need to tell them that that's all I do and that I should be defined by Huntington's disease rather than who I am as a person. And it's really changed my perception on, looking at, at life differently, but it also just helped me understand that it's not about being perceived as, hey, I'm Seth with Huntington's was, hey, I'm Sam, I'm impacted by it, but here I am as this is who I am as a person. Janet: 35:20 That you are not defined by your disease. Seth: 35:23 Exactly. Not defined by the disease and still trying to do great work. I mean, as as mentioned before, not only doing a TED-X talk, I spoke at global genes talking about the emotional toll toll a condition as a rare disease patient. I actually have spoken in front of genetic counselors, genetic counseling students and Undergrad and graduate. And also more recently I've, I've spoken in front of researchers. And I think that's the biggest thing is how do we bridge the gap? Getting the patient's voice more involved in research, listening to what our needs are and how we can take those next steps to speed up medical progress. Janet: 36:04 Well you are certainly on the right path and I congratulate you for the work you're doing and also for the passion that you're sharing with people because it is through stories that people will really connect with each other. Seth: 36:18 Yeah, and I appreciate you having me on here chatting. It's just more of an opportunity not for me but just for others to know that they're not alone when dealing with their health condition and knowing that there's people like you and I out there who want to help others and make sure that they hear stories like my own or stories of others on the podcast and just hearing that, you know, even though there are challenges in our lives we're still trying to make the most out of each day and that we can always do more to help others out. We can always do more to make a difference in the health space. Janet: 36:51 Well, you keep at it, Seth, and I look forward to hearing some more about what you're up to in the coming years.

We have IAN PUNNETT on CLASSIC SHOW REWIND THIS THURSDAY- discussing his book " A Black Night for the Bluegrass Belle" from DECEMBER 2016 - On November 6, 1936, 40-year-old Verna Garr Taylor of LaGrange, KY, was found dead in a soggy ditch just over the Henry County line. Her companion that night, 60-year-old Henry H. Denhardt, the sitting adjutant general of the Kentucky National Guard and recent lieutenant governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, insisted that Verna had spontaneously committed suicide with his gun on the same night she tried to return his engagement ring. Because of a series of macabre, bizarre, and sometimes laughable events, "the Iron General" would never be held legally responsible for the murder of this beautiful, honorable widow and businesswoman. But that does not mean that Denhardt was innocent.Just in the time for the 80th anniversary of this tragedy, Ian Punnett who resigned as host of the most listened to overnight show in North America to pursue a PhD in journalism and mass communication has uncovered the final missing, convincing details that bring A Black Night for the Bluegrass Belle to life. As part of the Commonwealth of Kentucky book series by Acclaim Press, Punnett also reveals the unknown truth behind Denhardt's ignoble demise, a death that is considered the last "code of honor" slaying in Kentucky history See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Artists and curators Louisa Chambers and Olivia Punnett talk about the respective exhibitions they were involved in curating for the 2017 Wirksworth Festival, Veneer and Internal Nebular. Curated by Louisa Chambers and Emily Strange, Veneer brings together a group of diverse artists from around the country whose practices play with themes of domesticity, display and concealment, and architectural space. The works are grouped together under the title Veneer. Working alongside Louisa and Emily will be artists Craig Fisher, Conor Hereford, Demi Levi, Tessa Lynch, Laura McCafferty, Zoe Mendelson, David Penny, Gabriel Tejada and Ian Whitfield. Internal Nebular explores the clandestine nature of geological time and the crystalline structures it forms, as well as connecting to the history of stone, so much a part of the Derbyshire landscape and identity. The works all have a reverence to the natural world, whilst being sited firmly in a contemporary understanding of the ground beneath our feet. The exhibition includes work by Dorothy Cross, Liz Orton and Alastair Mackie.

PBQ is back with the first episode of 2017! In this episode we talk about two poems by Taylor Altman and one by Heather Sagar. First, we discussed Taylor Altman’s poems, “How to Break Without Falling Apart,” and “Contra Mundum.” PBQ is back with the first episode of 2017! In this episode we talk about two poems by Taylor Altman and one by Heather Sagar. First, we discussed Taylor Altman’s poems, “How to Break Without Falling Apart,” and “Contra Mundum.” Taylor Altman taught herself how to juggle while studying for a calculus exam in college. She won her school district's spelling bee in 4th grade (the youngest student ever to do so) and was excused from spelling homework for the rest of the year. She has synesthesia, so she sees letters and numbers as being different colors; for example, "D" is green and "7" is purple. Find her on LinkedIn, Medium, or Blackbird. Next, we read Heather Sager’s poem, “Green.” Heather Sager finds happiness in reading the Russian Symbolists and in spending time with her outgoing son. Feeling mildly adventurous, she might wander out to snap a too-close photo of an ornery snapping turtle, an oversized praying mantis, or a suspiciously quiet pigeon. You can find her poems or stories in places like Bear Review, Fourth & Sycamore, Naugatuck River Review, BlazeVOX, Foliate Oak Literary Magazine, NEAT., Minetta Review, Untoward (forthcoming), Jet Fuel Review, and elsewhere. From the global to the personal, from surviving terrorist attacks to kissing frogs as a child, this conversation had all of us thinking critically about the relationship of a writer to the world around them, or, the world against them. Were these poems accepted or rejected? Did Kathy ever kiss a frog? Listen and find out! See Tim’s novel, The Soju Club, here. Check us out on Facebook and Twitter and let us know what you think with the #kissingfrogs Thank you for listening, and read on! Present at the Editorial Table: Kathleen Volk Miller Marion Wrenn Jason Schneiderman Tim Fitts Sara Aykit Miranda Reinberg Engineering Producer: Joe Zang ---------------------------- Taylor Altman How to Break Without Falling Apart She trades in antiques at the end of Adeline Street. Her shop is like the inside of a dream, with carpets and African masks and rings and earrings encased in glass as though within a tide pool. From the armoire of her mouth all sorts of things come out in the Kentish accent thirty years in California hasn’t shaken— what lives she has led, what other people she has been, how she learned to break without falling apart. A cool breeze comes through the back door, from the alleyway, and she says she works as a nurse for the elderly to afford a new passport with her maiden name, and to fix her teeth, small spans of darkness between gold. Taylor Altman Contra Mundum Under the burnt-out tree where the nightingale sings, where a magpie made its nest of wedding rings, the singed olive trees that once bore waxy fruits, where are you? John Walker Lindh, now called Sulayman, rocks back and forth, reading his Quran in Terra Haute. The tile halls of the madrassa are empty, the fountain stopped. Somewhere you are just waking up, in some other city, someone else’s skin. Our house was filled with books, corners of pages torn off for gum, small surface wounds that bloomed like carnations. Everything is complicit. A bird goes up the scale, notes like glass beads crushed underfoot. It’s you and me against the world. In the bazaar, we passed the birds in cages, seedcovered, shitcovered, the white bars scratched to copper. Clocks going off in every direction, faces faded and filled with sand. You read the papers every morning; the news was neither good nor bad; you had been in Srebrenica. IEDs exploded in the streets, bombs full of nails. A little boy was breathing blood. There was nothing we could do for him, his lungs expanding like balloons. You proposed that night, gave me the ring from the magpie’s nest, then disappeared. So many nights I watched you fight sleep. So many nights you woke up drenched in sweat as the imam’s cry flew over the rooftops and minarets. You said, Lindh’s father visits him in prison. He believes in his innocence. I watched your hips grow wider, the age spots appear on the backs of your hands. I painted and painted this fragment of window. Finally, the urgency of lovemaking left us. But our names remain on the lapels of your books, hybrids of our names, Punnett squares. Heather Sager GREEN After staring down those amphibious creatures, their sad-mute eyes dimly reflecting my own, I picked one up, and smacked him on the lips. Into woods, ponds I’d chase, collecting and admiring tone of skin, angling of protuberances, the feel of shifty, leggy treasures. Nearby, Hard-shelled soldiers rose, showing dilapidated orange mouths. My father ran at me with a shovel, once, to free a pinched limb— I wiggled free, he tapped the large shell. Still, there I remained— watching my parade, sentient, croaking, green.

Also today, Lian reviews her final Thanksgiving prep list and has already had a #thanksgivingfail. Why did she attempt to bake? It's just not in the Dolan DNA.Liz will be at Lian's home on Thanksgiving Day and has been assigned to forage for greens in Lian's vegetable garden. Julie has already celebrated Thanksgiving in Dallas. Liz has a successful dig-out in her second bedroom/Satellite Sisters technical operations center. In addition to donating 4 big boxes of books to the Santa Monica Public Library, she took 55 pounds worth of documents to be shredded at Staples last Friday. It was time. Plus breaking sports news. We loved the Golden Goggles Award for USA Swimming hosted by Rowdy Gaines last night in NYC, including Female Race of the Year to Simone Manuel and Male Race of the Year to Michael Phelps. As it happens, Liz and Lian were at the Aquatic Center in Rio for BOTH of these races. Special medal for them for that! Thanks USA Swimming for a great #Rio2016 Olympics. Lian attended the funeral of a friend's father last night. He was a prominent member of the large Korean community in Southern California and Lian's has picked up a few cultural tips from their funeral traditions that she may appropriate herself. In the

The Balfour Chair of Genetics was established at Cambridge in 1912. As part of its centenary celebrations the Department of Genetics has produced a short film following the development of the subject in the University over the past 100 years. In the early 20th century the establishment of genetic research in Britain was driven primarily by William Bateson. As Steward of St John's College and later Professor of Biology in the University, Bateson played a key role in demonstrating the applicability of Mendel's laws to a variety of organisms, particularly animals. As well as laying the foundations for a renewed interest in the study of heredity, it was Bateson who coined the term Genetics. In 1912, largely as a result of Bateson's championing of the subject, the University established the Balfour Professorship of Genetics that in time would lead to the formation of the modern Department of Genetics. The first incumbent of the Chair was Reginald Punnett, known to students of biology throughout the world for his eponymous square. In the hundred years since this event Genetics has passed from being an eccentric mixture of mathematics, gardening and biology to become the core of the biological sciences. Our film tells the story of the role of Cambridge and the Department of Genetics in this journey.
