Professor Judith Fridovich-Keil has been researching galactosemia for over 20 years and it was a privilege to welcome her to the JIMD podcast. The Professor and one of her former lab students and now medical student, Jessica MacWilliams, discuss the promise of new treatments, what drives their interest in galactosemia and a new method for formally assessing fine motor control in these patients.
