Great to join @DuchenneMD’s annual benefit for research into treatment for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy with Senators Collins and Wicker, Congressman Joyce, and @chefjoseandres. We're working to support treatment for this disease and I'm excited to see what advancements are next.

Let's get the kids diagnosed sooner and lessen the odyssey and give them a better opportunity to get care and contribute to research.
