Today, another sad day where a family contacted us to find a diagnosis for their child and all we can say is that we can get the samples, bank the DNA & be ready to send for sequencing as soon as we get funding... We need #GenomicEquity to reduce #HealthInequity for #RareDiseases

Friday Reading ☕ The Collaborative has long banged the drum on #HealthEquity and promoting #GenomicDiversity within #PrecisionMedicine. This breakdown from Nonprofit Quarterly on the lack of diversity within the Human Genome Project can be read HERE: nonprofitquarterly.org/precision-medi…
