Topic
Innovations and interventions for children with rare neurogenetic conditions and their families
Description
The UNC Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute is pleased to welcome Anne Wheeler, PhD, as the presenter of its 2023 Barbara Hanna Wasik Distinguished Lecture. This is a hybrid event scheduled on March 21 from noon until 1:30 pm at Graham Memorial Hall, Room 039; reception to follow. This lecture will delve into the unique needs of children and families affected by a diagnosis of a rare neurogenetic condition (e.g. fragile X syndrome, Angelman syndrome). As advances in genomic technologies and therapeutic options are made, more children with neurodevelopmental differences will receive a diagnosis of a rare neurogenetic condition. These diagnoses can provide answers regarding prognosis, connect families to advocacy organizations and tailored support, and in some cases, open doors to genetic therapies that may alter the trajectory of the condition. Understanding the phenotypes of these conditions and how they may impact the larger family unit is an important component to providing adequate support. This lecture will present several innovations and interventions that are focused on improving the lives of children with neurogenetic conditions and their families, including newborn screening efforts, the implications of genetic therapies, targeted early intervention programs, and challenges and solutions for assessment for diagnostic and evaluation purposes.
