Chromosome 18 - June News
We are pleased to announce that Doug Masterson has joined our Executive Board as the Vice President for Public Relations.  Doug and his family have been involved with the Registry for many years along with his wife Julie, son Jake (18q-) and two daughters Devyn & Lyla.  Doug brings a wealth of experience from the business world and you can find out more here

Moving forward once a month we will organize a visit for a small group to see the magic that is happening at the prestigious UT Health & Science Center right here in San Antonio.  Do you want to see what goes on behind the scenes and talk to the staff who work so hard to conduct the research for Chromosome 18?  Hear first hand from the specialists on what they have achieved, what they are working on and perhaps more importantly what is happening for the future.  As the actual research space is limited in size we can only accommodate groups of up to 7 people.  These tours will happen on the 2nd Thursday of each month with the first taking place tomorrow on June 9th, at 11:30 AM and will last for approx. 1 hour.  The next tour will be Thursday 14th July right after the conference and are expecting this will be very busy, so we will have a couple of time slots available if demand is high. To reserve a space please RSVP to [email protected].
