Tata Institute for Genetics and Society, India’s Post

🧠 Raising Awareness about Huntington's Disease! 🧠     TIGS in collaboration with Huntington's Disease Society of India is launching the Huntington’s Disease (HD) awareness campaign with posters curated under the expert guidance of Dr. Sanjeev Jain and Dr. Meera Purushottam from National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), India. These initiatives aim to create awareness about Huntington’s among clinicians, healthcare practitioners, and the general public.  ✨ The clinician-focused poster provides valuable insights for early diagnosis and management strategies, helping medical professionals offer better care to patients. The posters were designed to align with the most recent research and therapeutic advancements in the field.     ✨ The storyboard takes a different approach—highlighting lived experiences of those affected by HD, making the complex science behind the disease more relatable and easier to understand. This interactive and visual tool is designed to spark conversations and break the silence around HD.     Both posters were featured at the recently held NIMHANS Mental Health Santhe, a vibrant event bringing together healthcare professionals, patients, caregivers, and the public to foster dialogue around mental health and neurological disorders.     We are excited to continue building bridges between research, patient care, and public understanding. 🌍👩⚕️👨👩👦 Check out our podcast on Huntington's Disease here: https://lnkd.in/gyYQPsHs Rakesh Mishra Saveetha Ph.D. Dr. Akshay das. k Esha Srivastava    #HuntingtonsDisease #Neurology #MentalHealthAwareness #Healthcare #MentalHealthSanthe #PatientAdvocacy #PublicHealth #GeneticDisorders #Clinicians #REDRESS #Communityengagement
