Excited to be part of this research office hour series hosted by @AsianNeuropsych Education and Research Committees! Grateful to share about the evolving partnerships 🤝developed with rare disease organizations 🧬 and other collaborators - on the same week as #RareDiseaseDay !
The ANA Education and Research Committees are excited to invite you to our February office hour featuring Rowena Ng, Ph.D.! Dr. Ng's extensive research background is in neurogenetic and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Participants needed! @rowenangphd is hosting a study examining early developmental profiles and trajectory of KAT6. Families who can't participate in Baltimore can participate if they have a psychologist willing to administer the in-person test. The rest is done virtually.

If I had a nickel for every time a woman named Rosalind got neither the credit nor a Nobel Prize for her work, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Congratulations to our 2024 medicine laureate Victor Ambros ✨ This morning he celebrated the news of his prize with his colleague and wife Rosalind Lee, who was also the first author on the 1993 'Cell' paper cited by the Nobel Committee. #NobelPrize

This study in @Nature addresses an important issue but erases the discrimination experienced by Asians in academia by lumping them in with white academics. And in this way, it elegantly pulls a racism while pointing out racism (1/7) nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

If one more male faculty tells how great and productive they were during their paternity leave and how many papers they published I will lose my mind. I haven't slept in 8.5 months, I nurse every two hours, SO PLEASE, just DON'T. Signed: the evil mother of 3

At the KAT6 Conference, Drs. Fahrner, Harris and Ng, from the multi-disciplinary epigenetics and chromatic clinic at @JohnsHopkins, gave a presentation about the genetics behind KAT6 disorders, the clinical presentation of both and overlapping features. youtube.com/watch?v=lW1jzD1G…

48 hours, over 4500 miles ✈️ , two souvenirs for the kiddos, unfathomable number of coffee cups and cokes, and two presentations later 👩🏻‍💻Back home with my littles and love these “huggies” #aacn2024 #aacn #kat6

So excited to share our research. We thank families for their participation and @KAT6foundation for ongoing support in our work. We are excited to see our families and research colleagues at the upcoming conference soon!
We'd like to thank the families who participated in the neuropsychological study sponsored by our foundation, which will pave the way to better understand KAT6 syndromes in the hopes of finding therapeutics. @rowenangphd @KennedyKrieger @ojrarediseases ojrd.biomedcentral.com/artic…

On #RareDiseaseDay I want to highlight our recent presentation on diversity/equity in access to genomic services, and clinical trial research engagement. The rare disease diagnostic odyssey is often a long and winding road, but particularly so for underserved communities.
