SUMMARY:Join the Turner Syndrome Awareness Crew
DESCRIPTION:Sign Up Form\nSmall actions = Big ripple effects = Meaningful awareness all year long!\nRaising awareness for Turner syndrome doesn’t have to be overwhelming or time-consuming. \nThat’s why we created the Turner Syndrome Awareness Crew — a low-commitment\, high-impact way to help spread awareness in your community\, online\, and beyond all year round. \nWhen many people take simple actions together\, awareness grows farther than any one person could reach alone. \nWhat Is the Awareness Crew?\nThe Turner Syndrome Awareness Crew is a group of supporters who take small\, meaningful actions to help educate others and spark conversations about Turner syndrome. \nThere’s no minimum time requirement\, no pressure to do everything\, and no “right” way to raise awareness. \nWhat Kind of Actions Are We Talking About?\nThink simple and flexible\, yet high-impact: \n\n? Sharing or creating a social media post\n? Dropping off a flyer at a doctor’s office\, school\, or workplace\n?? Signing or sharing a petition\n? Talking with friends\, family\, or coworkers about Turner syndrome\n? Participating in Awareness Month activities\n\nEach action might only take a few minutes\, but when many of us come together to take action\, they create a powerful ripple effect. \n\n\nRaise Awareness and Bring Others Along\nEvery Awareness Crew member will receive a personal fundraising page\, making it easy to invite friends\, family\, and your community to support Turner syndrome awareness alongside you. \nYou don’t need to fundraise actively if you don’t want to. But if you do share your page\, you’re helping amplify awareness and support year-round. \nWhy It Matters\nAwareness leads to: \n\nEarlier diagnoses\nBetter understanding in doctors’ offices\, schools\, and workplaces\nStronger advocacy\nA more informed and compassionate community\n\nWhen many people take small steps\, the impact grows! \nReady to Be Part of the Crew?\nIf you’ve ever wanted to help raise awareness\, but weren’t sure how\, this is your invitation. \n? Join the Turner Syndrome Awareness Crew\n? Take simple actions when it works for you\n? Be part of something bigger than yourself \n? Shop for TSAM New Merch \nSign up today and start making an impact\, one small action at a time! \n\n\n\n\n\n

Topics covered will be current prenatal screening and diagnostic testing\, impact on prenatal care\, and resources for expectant parents. \nWhat You Will Learn: \nI am a clinical prenatal genetic counselor. In my clinical practice I routinely care for patients who are carrying a pregnancy with a suspected or known prenatal diagnosis of monosomy X. I have also provided preconception counseling to patients who have mosaic or full Turner syndrome. Participants should have a better understanding of the benefits and limitations of current prenatal screening for monosomy X and the importance of additional clinical follow-up for positive screens. Participants will also learn about the wide clinical spectrum of monosomy X in the prenatal period. There continues to be broad misconceptions about the accuracy\, benefits\, and limitations of current prenatal screening\, and this talk will touch on many of these. Additionally\, every couple has a chance to have a child or pregnancy with TS\, so this information is relevant to any person considering having a child. Finally\, a cursory google search about prenatal turner syndrome or monosomy X often yields inaccurate information\, leading the general population to often have misconceptions about the prenatal features of TS. \nWho Should Attend:\nIndividuals\, allied health professionals\, educators\, administrators\, and policymakers are encouraged to attend. \nAbout the Presenter: \nEmily Green\, Masters of Genetic Counseling\, 2021 PhD in Cellular and Molecular Biology\, 2019 Masters of Cellular and Molecular Biology\, 2016 Certified Genetic Counselor\, 2022 \nI am a clinical genetic counselor specializing in prenatal and reproductive genetics at the University of Washington. I primarily see patients referred to our high-risk prenatal clinic\, though I also see patients for preconception counseling before or after pregnancy. I routinely see patients who have had abnormal noninvasive prenatal screening and/or abnormal ultrasound findings\, including cases of potential monosomy X. I am passionate about providing information and support to all my patients\, particularly those who experience an unexpected diagnosis during pregnancy. I am also a mentor and clinical supervisor for University of Washington genetic counseling students. \nI was raised in the Pacific Northwest and grew up with a passion for biology. This led me to pursue undergraduate studies at Western Washington University. While at Western I also continued studies in French\, which led me to a Masters and PhD in cellular and Molecular biology in Strasbourg\, France\, where I focused primarily on developing strategies to block malaria transmission by mosquitoes. A desire to move away from research and into applied work led me to genetic counseling\, which merges my interest in genetics with my desire to work with people and support patients. I graduated from the University of Arizona genetic counseling program in 2019 and since that time have been working at the University of Washington Medical Center. Outside of my clinical work\, I enjoy all the outdoor activities Washington has to offer\, as well as social dancing and knitting. \nPlease Donate!\nIt is free to register. We ask you to please donate\, if you can\, to support our work in providing enriching education programs for all. Your donation today helps to make programs like this one readily available to anyone virtually anywhere in the world. \nDonations and sponsorships make learning events such as this WE LEARN webinar activity to be provided freely and accessible to everyone. Show your commitment to the cause – become a 1938 Sustaining Supporter.

SUMMARY:Living With Turner Syndrome: Caring For Your Heart and Blood Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Cardiovascular health is an important topic for the TS community as several concerns are more common in TS than in the general population. In this webinar\, Dr. Prakash provides an overview of these concerns and the care guidelines to ensure early detection. After reviewing congenital heart and blood vessel problems that are more common in people with Turner syndrome\, Dr. Prakash will discuss recommendations for screening and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Aortic dissection and heart disease affect many people who do not have TS. The principles in this presentation apply to many people in the non-TS general population who are living with heart and blood vessel conditions.\n \nTopic Overview:  \nWhat is aortic dissection\, and why is it something that the TS community needs to be aware of?\nWhat can patients do to be proactive about their heart health?\nWhat monitoring and evaluations are recommended in the Clinical Care Guidelines?\nWhat should be in an emergency action plan for people with TS?\nIf an aortic dissection does take place\, what are the next steps for intervention?\nHow can patients can support TS/aortic dissection research? \nWho Should Attend:\nPatients\, caregivers\, allied health professionals\, clinical researchers\, health administration\, policymakers\, philanthropists \nWebinar Link:\nCheck the email you provided to receive the webinar link. \nCost:\nFree. Donations are appreciated. \nAbout the Presenter: \nDr. Prakash is Professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. He is the co-director of the Turner Syndrome Adult Comprehensive Care Center\, directs the aortopathy clinic\, and conducts collaborative research on bicuspid aortic valve and Turner syndrome. \nDegree & Certifications:\nMD\, PhD Adult Congenital Heart Disease Adult Cardiovascular Disease Internal Medicine Echocardiography \nSpecialty & Area of Focus:\nSiddharth Prakash has a Ph.D. in Molecular and Human Genetics from Baylor College of Medicine\, where he also completed his residency in Internal Medicine and a fellowship in Cardiovascular Disease. He is board certified in cardiology\, echocardiography\, and adult congenital heart disease. Since 2011\, Dr. Prakash has worked as the cardiologist in the Multidisciplinary Aortic and Vascular Disease Clinic at McGovern Medical School\, a part of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston\, where he specializes in medical therapy\, imaging\, and surveillance of patients with heritable aortic and vascular diseases. He is Professor of Internal Medicine and is co-director of the Turner Syndrome Adult Comprehensive Care Center\, a multispecialty clinic that sees Turner syndrome patients from across the southwest region. He leads the national Turner Syndrome Research Registry and is chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the Turner Syndrome Society of the United States. He also co-chairs the Collaborative Clinical Science working group of the GenTAC Alliance and is an investigator with the Montalcino Aortic Consortium. Dr. Prakash’s translational research focuses on the contribution of rare genetic variants to bicuspid aortic valve (BAV)\, the most common adult congenital heart defect. Dr. Prakash uses an innovative strategy to identify new candidate genes for BAV\, based in part on the hypothesis that reduced dosage of genes on the X chromosome is responsible for sex differences in the prevalence of BAV and other congenital heart diseases. His team demonstrated that specific rare genetic variants predict complications of patients with BAV. Dr. Prakash has received funding from the National Science 1 Foundation\, American Heart Association\, National Institutes of Health\, and the John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health\, which funded the first clinical trial of exercise in aortic dissection survivors led by Dr. Prakash. \nDonations and sponsorships make learning events such as this WE LEARN webinar activity provided freely and accessible to everyone.
