I am so grateful to have met Stefanos Koutsoukos on Clubhouse, where we were able to extend our relationship beyond. He shares incredible perspectives on rare disease as a patient, scientist, and advocate. I think that this episode of Folds & Curves tells a comprehensive story, covering topics like: the diagnostic odyssey: what it's like for rare disease patients and families to reach a diagnosis, patient rights surrounding their genetic data, the genetics and biochemistry of ASPRV1-mediated ichthyosis, and gene therapy approaches to rare disease I hope that you all enjoy ? .
