Upcoming: In the Room: Unlocking Answers: What Every Parent Should Know About Genetic Testing

February 10, 2026 8:00 pm Register for the Event

About

Genetic testing can play a powerful role in helping families find answers about their child’s health. In this session, we’ll walk you through the different types of genetic tests, what they can (and can’t) tell you, and how they’re used to diagnose a wide range of conditions. We’ll also talk about how re-checking genetic data over time can lead to new insights and better outcomes. Finally, we’ll explore how ongoing efforts are making genetic testing more available and more useful for families from all backgrounds.

This event will take place on Tuesday, February 10th at 8:00 pm ET (7:00 pm CT, 6:00 pm MT, 5:00 pm PT).

Continuing Education information coming soon.
