Today she leads an incredible team and fights for equity and quality of life of tens of thousands of patients impacted by this rare genetic condition. Aside from nerding out on all things Sondheim, she and host Matthew Zachary also dive into the "How a bill becomes a law" process of drug development. There's nothing quite like getting a drug approved that you know will actually make a dent in the universe for thousands of people. Enjoy the show.
