CGTA was well represented at #HRS2023 in New Orleans. We had a wonderful time at the @SADSFoundation networking lunch with an amazing group of cardiovascular genetic counselors. We look forward to exploring projects to increase awareness and utilization of cardiogenomic testing.

Super cool observation that a monogenic mechanism of longer telomeres yields familial clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential. https://t.co/0S21vsUdBC
@NEJM This is super cool bc it's not the expectation as @ginakolata @nytimes explains ( https://t.co/QhNxvZ2IJq) 🧵👇

Glimmers are the opposite of triggers. They’re moments when your nervous system is grounded, you feel fully at peace, and comfortable inside your body. Examples: 1. Feeling the sun on your skin 2. Laying with your pet 3. Hugging your partner 4. Being in awe of nature 5.

“variants related to transforming growth factor-β signaling are associated with a higher incidence of … cardiovascular events than FBN1 variants. COL3A1 variants might be related to a lower incidence of aortic dissection than other gene variants in women only.” #CardioTwitter

On the one hand this AP bio textbook is trying WAY too hard to make mitosis sound cool for the TikTok generation 🧬🕺💃🏾 On the other hand I am totally here for Rosalind Franklin getting due credit for her discovery of the double helix along with Watson & Crick

#CardioTwitter #GeneChat I’ll be there!
Our first webinar is a week away! Learn about cardiogenomic testing and the work being done to increase awareness and utilization. We will be joined by @MayoClinic genetic cardiologist Dr. Michael Ackerman and Alice Lara, CEO of the @SADSFoundation. https://t.co/1FlwQHTE3F

When someone tells you they have epilepsy, don't treat the person any differently. They are still the same person. They still want to be treated with the same amount of respect, dignity and compassion. #TalkEpilepsy #Epilepsy #EpilepsyAwareness #Respect #Dignity
