#InTheNews: Big news from #ASHG2024! Researchers at Helix have unveiled a novel precision effectiveness model to predicts the 12-month weight loss response of Semaglutide in diverse populations. This model could be used to identify individuals most likely to respond to treatment, improve shared decision making around best individual treatments for obesity, estimates of expected weight loss over time and more. This research was made possible by the Helix Research Network, the largest and fastest growing precision clinical research network to help advance genetic and health insights.

Proud of our partner WellSpan Health's progress with their community health research program, the Gene Health Project. Enrolling 25,000 participants surpasses their annual goals with this joint population genomics effort that will transform health care delivery and outcomes. WellSpan is leading the way into a future of more personalized medicine for all.
We've surpassed a milestone in the Gene Health Project! More than 25,000 volunteers are helping to change the future of medicine through their participation. By participating, you may be able to better understand your genetic risks for certain cancers and a cause of inherited heart disease, helping you and your doctors personalize your care and plan a healthier future. Our goal is to recruit 100,000 volunteers and there is no cost to participate. Through this program, you also have the opportunity to learn about your regional ancestry and genetic traits like caffeine sensitivity and sleep patterns.

#InTheNews: Did you know that genetic factors play a role in up to 10% of all cases of breast and ovarian cancer? A new study in JAMA Network Open we worked on reveals that many patients are unaware they carry genetic risk factors for these diseases. Our study partner, Joseph Grzymski, Chief Genomics Officer at Renown Health, discussed these findings with Maggie McGrath of ForbesWomen, highlighting what this means for both patients and providers across the U.S. Watch the full interview to learn more about the impact of genetic screening, cost barriers, and what's next in cancer prevention efforts. https://bit.ly/486nqv7 #BreastCancerAwareness #GeneticScreening #WomensHealth #CancerPrevention
