📢 New Publication Alert!
Workforce survey of neurogeneticists—who we are, what our practice looks like, evolving challenges, and future directions. Plus: what lessons can neurology learn from this experience to incorporate genetic medicine into practice? Curious? Read on. 🧬✨
National survey of the Neurogenetics workforce reveals insights on program development, practice styles, inpatient care, next-gen therapeutics, and how general neurology clinics can integrate these lessons for precision medicine. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

It was a pleasure and an honor to present Grand Round lectures at Cincinnati Children’s and share some of our work on deep phenotyping and collaborative research in ultra-rare neuro-metabolic disorders. Grateful to spend time at one of the nation’s leading pediatric institutions.

Joined @ndecinstitute.bsky.social to elevate my educational game using digital tools… stayed for Jacki and Jess—brilliance, warmth, and the best kind of chaos. Such a joy to be a part of this crew! @jrgoldstein.bsky.social @aanmember.bsky.social @childneurosoc.bsky.social

Loved teaming up with Dr. Dhameja & Dr. Levy at #AANAM to talk about how neurogenomics is reshaping care for kids with epilepsy, leukodystrophy, movement & mitochondrial disorders. We’re learning, evolving, and pushing boundaries to transform rare disease care.

Never have I ever taken the ferry to get to the conference center… felt like Moana but make it academic. @AAANAM here I come!

Are you attending #AANAM? Excited for my first one! If you’re a trainee or provider curious about neurogenomics, join me and my co-speakers to explore how genetic testing shapes day-to-day clinical care for epilepsy, movement disorders, and more! @aanmember.bsky.social

Post-concussion clinical insomnia affects 36% of kids after concussion, leading to 3x higher symptom severity, poorer cognitive function, and longer recovery (89 vs. 57 days, p=0.004). Early intervention can ease symptom burden and speed up recovery. www.pedneur.com/article/S088...

Grateful to present with an expert crew at #ACNC! Inborn errors of metabolism in adults often hide in plain sight, mistaken for routine diagnoses. It’s time to sharpen our lens, empower the workforce, and turn anomalies into answers. @theacmg.bsky.social @childrensnational.bsky.social

Landed in LA for #ACMG2025, ready to nerd out with my gnomies and maybe steal the show in a blockbuster. Lights, camera, action… and clinical genetics! 🎬 😎 🧬

Had a great time chatting with the @ndecinstitute.bsky.social today with Dr. Eliz Agopian and Dr. Michael Kentris, discussing professional networking.

We workshopped graceful self-promotion to effect change in a variety of settings—from in-person conferences to the newest social media platforms!

79% of youth with chronic tic disorders had an anxiety disorder, with anxiety most common (62%). Anxiety was linked to worse tic severity (p=0.0003) & premonitory urges (p=0.03), highlighting the need for targeted care. #TicDisorders #Anxiety 🔬 www.pedneur.com/article/S088...
