In this episode of the Attention on Prevention podcast, we talk to Dr. Natasha Shur, a medical geneticist at Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Dr. Shur describes the role of a medical geneticist in abuse cases and how they fill a role within a multi-disciplinary team of doctors in diagnosing abusive head trauma and abuse in general. Dr. Shur warns of the misuse of random genetic testing in abuse cases and how she is seeing cases where misinterpreted data has led to children being misdiagnosed with a genetic disorder without proper testing. We do apologize for the few moments of audio distortion. Brought to you by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome.
