Cancer risk assessment for trans and gender‑diverse patients has to be organ‑based, not gender‑based: Which organs are present? What hormones, at what dose and for how long? What surgeries? What family history and genetic results? #CancerGenetics
Closing out the morning with gender affirming care for transgender and gender diverse patients led by Gabrielle Ernst, MS, CGC.
Case spotlight: Baby KJ, born Aug 1, 2024, with a severe CPS1 deficiency and ammonia >1000 within days of life. Instead of only waiting for a liver transplant, a team raced to design a personalized base‑editing therapy targeting his specific variant.
Cardiovascular disease kills 18M people every year and is now the leading cause of death even in the poorest countries. Today we heard how gene editing could turn off cholesterol genes in the liver to change that trajectory. #CRISPR #HeartHealth
We’re back from break with therapeutic gene editing for cardiovascular and metabolic disease with Kiran Musunuru, MD, PhD, MPH, ML, MRA.
Up next: Preimplantation Genetic Testing for HLA matching, covering both clinical applications and ethical considerations with Andria Besser, MS, CGC and Emily Patterson, BS.
Now diving into hormonal management in Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer with Yael Simons, MD. An important discussion at the intersection of genetics, oncology, and patient-centered care.
Next up: DEI Grant updates with Radhika Sawh, MS, CGC, NYSGTF Community Outreach Director at Large. For more information or to apply, visit https;//www.nysgeneticstaskfroce.com/dei-grant Deadline: February 15, 2026
We’re starting with an overview of the NYSGTF 2026 Strategic Plan from Celeste Wyman, ScM, CGC, President of the NYS Genetics Task Force.
