Nicknamed Kinky Hair Syndrome Menkes Syndrome is tested for in cases where the child isn't getting enough copper which can cause hair loss. It is often the first sign. It isn't on the newborn screening currently, but their are clinical trials for it. Go to clinicaltrials.gov for more information if your child has it. Babies won't show signs often until it is to late.
Daniel has a background in video editing and animation and has worked on shows like The Closer and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Today he works at Global Genes and uses his skills to help rare disease patients tell their story through film.
I am currently trying to turn Rare Connection into a nonprofit. I am looking for volunteer board members to help with that. It is a volunteer position, so you won't be paid, but it is a good way to gain experience and help the rare disease community.
