Cutting the newborn screening committee is a mistake and hurts kids with Duchenne. Without it, adding DMD to state screens could stall—delaying diagnosis and early care when it matters most. This move puts vulnerable babies at risk. 🔗 nbcnews.com/health/health-…

Love the UMass Chan Medical School #Duchenne Program team. Grateful to work with such amazing and dedicated people.

Fantastic work from UMass Chan Medical School Neurology at the Annual Neurology Research Celebration.

Had a great time at my first CureDuchenne Futures meeting. I especially enjoyed our panels about transitioning to adulthood, and addressing some of the oft-neglected mental health components of DMD.
