What if one small genetic change could alter your entire health journey?
In this episode, I sit down with Brad, a genetics student with a personal connection to MEN1, to explore:
- How MEN1 mutations impact the body at a molecular level
- The surprising link between MEN1 and cancer development
- Why genetics is shaping the future of rare disease research
- What the latest scientific advancements mean for MEN1 patients

ABOUT OUR GUEST
Hi, I'm Brad, and I'm a second year Genetics student at the University of York. The MEN1 gene runs in my family, meaning I have potentially inherited the gene. Despite this, I have (so far) decided against being screened. My long term goal post-graduate is to go into research in MEN1. I have keen interests in genetics (obviously), microbiology and biochemistry (in particular the interactions between molecules, and how this links to things like cancer). I love talking, reading and researching all things biology, and enjoy simplifying the often complex topics to enable all to understand. I hope you enjoy listening to my story.

Are you sure MEN1 can’t be influenced?
When I stopped just 'settling' for symptom management, I began carving a path to somewhere I believed impossible in MEN1: symptom-free, surgery-free, and medication-free. If you’re curious to see how I’m making this happen, join my community here.
