No Blog Post – 08/17

Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to create a post this weekend. However, on August 19th, I attended my school’s new student orientation to promote my chapter of NORD Students for Rare! With the help of my executive board, we were able to get over 30 new students to sign up to join our chapter. And, on August 15th, I had the opportunity to give a presentation on some different treatments for phenylketonuira (PKU) at a genetics conference. If you want to make an impact or raise awareness for rare diseases, go check out NORD’s website at https://rarediseases.org/. Make sure to keep an eye out for this week’s post!

Let’s keep spreading awareness! – Lily
