What keeps a scientist motivated through more than What keeps a scientist motivated through more than 30 years of research?

For Susan A. Slaugenhaupt, PhD, the answer is simple: the patients and families whose lives have been changed by discoveries in human genetics.

An investigator in the Center for Genomic Medicine at Mass General Brigham, Dr. Slaugenhaupt has helped identify the genetic causes of rare neurological diseases, advance promising gene and small-molecule therapies, and bring new hope to patients around the world.

Now, as President of the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG), she is helping champion a future where genetic discoveries lead to better treatments, better prevention, and better health for everyone.

Ahead of #ASHG26 happening in Montréal next week, learn about her unexpected path into genetics, the breakthroughs that defined her career, and why she believes every scientist has a role in communicating the value of research.
