Innovatively Speaking: The Most Common Disease You’ve Never Heard Of

Kevin and Jesse are joined by Chip Norris, Ph.D., and Cortney Gensemer, Ph.D., both with the Norris Lab at MUSC. Norris and Gensemer discuss their study of Ehlers Danlos syndrome (EDS), a disease that affects almost 1 in 300 individuals, often labeled the most common disease you’ve never heard of. Gensemer discusses both living with and promoting EDS on social media while Norris examines why learning about EDS could help parents manage constant pain their children may be dealing with and further pediatric care internationally.
