<p>This special episode of DNA Today was recorded live during Cocktails & Chromosomes, a celebration hosted by Team Telomere in New York City. Held at the stunning venue donated by Hogan Lovells (390 Madison Ave), the evening brought together the telomere biology disorder (TBD) community, including patients, families, clinicians, and researchers, for cocktails, connection, and powerful conversations.</p>
<p>Two inspiring and informative guests join the episode: </p>
<p>Jena Robertson is the Program Administrator at Team Telomere, a patient advocate, and mother to Lorelei (“Rori”), a young girl living with a telomere biology disorder.
Will Mannherz is a MD-PhD Harvard Medical School student and co-author of multiple research papers exploring TBDs and emerging therapeutic strategies.</p>
<p>Together, Jena and Will help us understand both the personal and scientific sides of TBDs, from diagnosis to discovery.</p>
