My talk of Cerebral Palsy and Genetic trends

I will be speaking on #cerebralpalsy and genetic trends this noon. Cerebral Palsy , while not under rare diseases does have some very interesting new genetic trends emerging which promises positivity in the care of these children.

Future Skeletal Dysplasia Clinic

I will also be interacting with doyens in field of Genetics in India and Paediatricians with experience in rare diseases to setup a rare Disease clinic at ICCONS that caters to Skeletal Dysplasia like Achondroplasia, Pseudo-Achondroplasia, Hypochondroplasia, SpondyloEpiphyseal Dysplasia etc..

Many of these disease are rare with rare mutations. Setting up a clinic with many specialists is very important to cater to this group comprehensively.

Today we take baby steps in this directions.
