Welcome back to "The Phelan-McDermid Podcast: Sharing Research, Progress, and Hope"

This is our third and final episode from our mini-series featuring the 2023 PMSF Grant Awardees! On this episode, Dr. Lauren is talking to Dr. Milena Andzelm from Boston Children's Hospital. She received the Shannon O'Boyle Memorial Neuropsychiatric Illness Grant for her grant titled “Investigating Immune and Autoimmune Mechanisms of Neuropsychiatric Decompensation in Phelan-McDermid syndrome.

Tune in to learn more about how a clinical case during Dr. Andzelm's training inspired her research in immune functioning in Phelan-McDermid syndrome as well as learn about progress on her current project. You'll also get to hear more about the Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Neuropsychiatric Consultation Group!

Dr. Andzelm is still recruiting for her study, so check out our Current Open Research page for your opportunity to participate! And remember - she's looking for individuals 10 years+ with and without a history of neuropsychiatric illness! https://pmsf.org/current-open-research/
