📢 New Publication Alert! Workforce survey of neurogeneticists—who we are, what our practice looks like, evolving challenges, and future directions. Plus: what lessons can neurology learn from this experience to incorporate genetic medicine into practice? Curious? Read on. 🧬✨

It was a pleasure and an honor to present Grand Round lectures at Cincinnati Children’s and share some of our work on deep phenotyping and collaborative research in ultra-rare neuro-metabolic disorders. Grateful to spend time at one of the nation’s leading pediatric institutions.

Loved teaming up with Dr. Dhameja & Dr. Levy at #AANAM to talk about how neurogenomics is reshaping care for kids with epilepsy, leukodystrophy, movement & mitochondrial disorders. We’re learning, evolving, and pushing boundaries to transform rare disease care.

Post-concussion clinical insomnia affects 36% of kids after concussion, leading to 3x higher symptom severity, poorer cognitive function, and longer recovery (89 vs. 57 days, p=0.004). Early intervention can ease symptom burden and speed up recovery. www.pedneur.com/article/S088...

Grateful to present with an expert crew at #ACNC! Inborn errors of metabolism in adults often hide in plain sight, mistaken for routine diagnoses. It’s time to sharpen our lens, empower the workforce, and turn anomalies into answers. @theacmg.bsky.social @childrensnational.bsky.social

Had a great time chatting with the @ndecinstitute.bsky.social today with Dr. Eliz Agopian and Dr. Michael Kentris, discussing professional networking. We workshopped graceful self-promotion to effect change in a variety of settings—from in-person conferences to the newest social media platforms!

79% of youth with chronic tic disorders had an anxiety disorder, with anxiety most common (62%). Anxiety was linked to worse tic severity (p=0.0003) & premonitory urges (p=0.03), highlighting the need for targeted care. #TicDisorders #Anxiety 🔬 www.pedneur.com/article/S088...

Great Grand Rounds by @jrgoldstein.bsky.social & @caseyalbin.bsky.social on digital tools in neurology education! What I’ve learned today and over the last year at NDEC: there’s no one tool that’s the end-all be-all—it’s all about pushing past your comfort zone. #MedEd #NeuroTwitter

New publication in Annals of CNS! Are we losing old-school diagnostic tricks, like the pyridoxine challenge, by over-relying on molecular testing? Food for thought. Congrats to my co-authors Drs. Sahjwani, Takle, Bharucha, and Kornbluh! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
