The gap in the literature filled by my thesis

Victoria Klee giving an overview of dementia - differ by pathology/area of the brain affected, symptoms/presentation, average age of onset, genetics, progression of the disease. But lots of overlap between the different types. ^ER #NSGC22

VK: FTD accounts for 10-20% of worldwide dementia cases & the most common form of dementia when onset is <60 years old. Caused by atrophy of frontal & temporal lobes. 3 subtypes - behavioral (bvFTD) and language (sv-PPA or nfv-PPA). ^ER #NSGC22 nia.nih.gov/health/what-ar…

VK: Many emerging genetic contributors to FTD & ALS. Red flags for GCs = muscle/strength issues, respiratory probs, rapid decline in function (ALS), language probs, behavioral changes, suicide (FTD). Important to consider within cultural norms. ^ER #NSGC22 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Thank you so much Leigha!! An honor to share the stage with other Neuro #buckeyeGCs 🧠

🚨Poster Alert!🚨 Thanks to everyone’s help with recruiting participants last year, I was able to get some interesting data for my thesis. View ePoster DEI273 to learn more about my findings! #GeneChat #NSGC22 #NSGC2022

Multiple generations of alumni and faculty presenting yesterday at #NSGC2022 on Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Frontotemporal Degeneration (FTD): Jennifer Roggenbuck (faculty), Kelly Rich (Class of ‘19), Maysen Mesaros (‘21), Victoria Klee (faculty, ‘20)

A quick #APOE4 refresher because we’re about to get a lot of questions on it #GeneChat… (Thanks Laynie Dratch, ScM CGC)

Can genetic testing labs give us their version of Spotify Wrapped? “These are the results you called us about the most! Here’s how long you waited on hold for the answers” “Top 5 confusing VUS’s you received this year”

It’s #InternationalWomenInScienceDay so cheers to my The James at Ohio State The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center GC friends who are rockstar researchers/clinicians/educators! I see you Jordan Brown Amber Aeilts Julia Cooper, MS, CGC 🩸🧬 Josie Baker Maegan Roberts Rachel Pearlman @pamela_brock_gc Elizabeth Jordan Katie Parker Victoria

Not all physicians know about FTD, so it is often misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all. AFTD developed checklists to help identify red flags for the two most common types of FTD - #bvFTD and #ppa. Download them here:bit.ly/3ZbySQy

#GeneChat - do we have any platform that can compare two panels and tell us what genes each test has in common and what is missed? I needed a gene Venn diagram instead of comparing panels of 100-1000s of genes 🧬 🆘

Thank you Jewel!! This will definitely save me time in the future 🙌🏼 Yes I did just read through 2,300 genes to cross reference a 320 gene panel via Ctrl F 🤦🏻‍♀️

Our neuro genetics team joined PD GENE in 2021 and have since provided genetic counseling and testing to over 150 patients (and counting) with Parkinson’s disease!

Great highlight of the work being done in Parkinson’s genetic testing and the impact on family members! Shoutout to faculty member Victoria Klee for her work 🧬 #BuckeyeGCs

Thank you to the Parkinson's Foundation & OSU Department of Neurology and Residency Program for supporting the PD GENEration study! Providing genetic counseling and testing to patients and families with PD is vital for patient care & the future of research 🧬🧠 this article highlights the impact of the study!

The field of genetic counseling just got 10x better! Congrats to this amazing cohort 🅾️🙌🏼
