Description

If you're interested in learning more about what is involved with genetic testing  and  how a visit with a genetic counselor might be helpful, join Cynthia Frisina, the host of Let's Talk CP, as she dives deep with licensed genetic counselor, Danielle Lemke and they talk about what genetic counseling really is, how it can help and  what it might be used for as it relates to potential genetic causes of cerebral palsy.  Danielle explains how some of the genetic causes of cerebral palsy can be identified through genetic counseling and how a family might qualify for no cost testing.   This episode is made possible by PTC Therapeutics, a science-driven, global biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of clinically differentiated medicines that provide benefits to patients with rare disorders.
