Thank you AAP Neonatal! Honored to receive the Marshall Klaus Award to support my research Epilepsy Genetics Program 👶🏻🧠🧬 and thank you Genevieve Guyol, MD for the 📸! BCH Division of Newborn Medicine

Came back from #CNSAM, presenting posters (coincidentally) side by side with Chris McGraw, MD, PhD Epilepsy Genetics Program mate in the inaugural RSZ-TNC Symposium. Talks and panel discussion on the state-of-the-art AAV- or RNA- based #genetherapy by Intellectual & Dev Disabilities Research Center @FMKirbyNeuro Mustafa Sahin

Molecular Diagnostic Yield of Exome Sequencing and Chromosomal Microarray in Cerebral Palsy ja.ma/3VVdeiG via JAMA Neurology part of JAMA Network A systematic review by Sid Srivastava Boston Children's Intellectual & Dev Disabilities Research Center on together with Epilepsy Genetics Program Bhooma Aravamuthan MD DPhil and Michael Kruer

We are excited to see Dr. Sid Srivastava's meta-analysis of genetic testing for patients with CP published in JAMA Neurology (punchline: the yield is higher than you might expect) jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Our own Lacey Smith and colleagues have published the first practice guideline for genetic testing in the epilepsies. There are now formal recommendations that include broad-based testing for all individuals with unexplained epilepsy! Check it out here: doi.org/10.1002/jgc4.1…

Epilepsy Genetics Program’s Lacey Smith giving her Skills Workshop in variant testing in the epilepsies at #AES2022 AGE Program - Adult Genetic Epilespy American Epilepsy Society

Our team had so much fun teaching, learning, and exploring at #AES2022 in Nashville and #TARGET in Memphis!!

Thank you Spectrum (Autism Research News) for recognizing me as a rising star in autism research! And thank you to my mentors ChrisAWalsh Epilepsy Genetics Program Tim Yu 🧠🧬

In a review of 154 studies and a practice guideline, Beth Sheidley & Lacey Smith conclude that genome or exome #sequencing should now be viewed as first-line tests for unexplained #epilepsy. ms.spr.ly/6012eo6RK cc Epilepsy Genetics Program

Thrilled to share our paper in The Lancet Neurology demonstrating the feasibility, diagnostic yield, and clinical utility of rapid genome sequencing in infantile epilepsy, with many thanks to the families who participated thelancet.com/journals/laneu…

Dr. Ann Poduri, a neurologist here at Boston Children’s Hospital, spoke about her epilepsy research at Fenway High School today in Boston as part of Massachusetts STEM Week! The kids learned about genetics and heredity, how genes can help provide answers to families, & more! 👏
