NHF’s 71st Bleeding Disorders Conference (BDC) is just weeks away, the stress of back-to-school season is in full effect, and might Tai Chi be, “An Ancient Remedy for Modern Times” that we all need?  Rick Starks says so! Nutrition consultant student Delisa O’Brien and Hong Kong-based singer/songwriter Kashy Keegan join the pod to talk about Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and Charcot-Marie Tooth Disease (CMT), as September is an awareness month for both, and Spark Therapeutics Co-Founder & President Dr. Katherine High joins us to discuss her journey in gene therapy and the launch of TheScienceFair.org!  Plus, A Moment for Mental Health with Debbie and streaming recommendations from Mama Sue. All that, and more, on Episode 40 of The BloodStream Podcast.
