The HD View with Dr. Kyle Fink

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15 - 3:30 pm PST/6:30 pm EST

Happy Tuesday everyone!  This is Melissa Biliardi, your host. Our call in numbers are 310-982-4227 or 877-497-4103.  When you call in press “1” and we will cue you into the show.  Thank you 95 thousand listeners for tuning in to Help4HD Radio. Five years ago I never dreamed that we would be closing in on 100 thousand listeners and 220 episodes. I am so proud and happy to be able to introduce amazing guests to you on each show that we do. Tonight is no exception. We have an incredible, intelligent and brilliant research scientist with us Dr. Kyle Fink, who is working with Dr. Jan Nolta in her Lab at the UC Davis IRC. He is working on research to prepare the very first ever Juvenile Huntington’s Disease Research Initiative with stem cell.

Tonight we get to meet Dr. Fink and learn all about his work in Jan’s Lab. All of our hopes and fears lie with getting research funded through all the phases of clinical trials and to the market for our loved one who are suffering from this horrendous disease. Help4HD is taking a stand to support JHD research. Our very own President Katie Jackson held our first Help4JHD Kids Walk in June which was amazing. We were able to raise a small amount of money for Dr. Fink’ research. We know that without research and clinical trials, none of us will have a chance to help our HD community with treatments, therapies or the cure, so I hope there is someone listening out there who can help us too.

Tune in to a very eduational,and inspirational show!
