The University of Colorado and UCHealth Hereditary GI Cancer team showing their support during #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth with a #strongarmselfie. So proud to be part of such an incredible team!
Osteosarcoma sucks, but this is amazing. So incredibly heartwarming. #GoBlue
It was a pleasure to have Dametrius Walker with us today to get a tour of the facilities and to score his first career touchdown! Keep fighting, Meechie, the entire program is with you!

Meechie lost his battle. 💔In all the sadness, I'm so glad that he got the opportunity to be part of the @UMichFootball team for a short time & experience such joy. Sending love to his friends & family. #osteosarcoma
Did you know that >20% of osteosarcomas may be hereditary?

Today is Genetic Counselor Awareness Day 2022! Help advance the profession by supporting #AccesstoGCs, a bill that would authorize CGCs as healthcare providers. Retweet if you support GCs in healthcare! bit.ly/304jwUT #IAmAGeneticCounselor #GeneChat #HR2144 #S1450
Happy #GeneticCounselorAwarenessDay! It's an incredible profession (I know I'm biased) & I look forward to its future evolution. I hope for more diversity with more equitable training & certification. And let's soon celebrate #GCAppreciationDay instead. #IAmAGeneticCounselor

Today’s #SCOTUS decision is alarming. We believe all pregnant people deserve care, including safe access to abortion. Board-certified professionals provide evidence-based, unbiased info that allows patients to make informed reproductive choices. #GeneChat (1/2)
ALT The graphic reads "JOINT STATEMENT FROM NSGC, ACMG and ASHG: #SCOTUS DECISION ON DOBBS VS. JACKSON WOMEN’S HEALTH CENTER". The NSGC logo is in the bottom-right corner.
Love this. "Be yourself." Great advice @nerdyblack_gc!

To all the #geneticcounselors out there, did you finish your PSS survey? Today is the last day and every response matters. Mine is submitted and I noticed some great new DEI questions this year. Thanks, @GeneticCouns #GCchat
