Reviews
“Your family story is simply extraordinary and inspiring” Chloe B. PhD, Research Fellow
“Hi Andres, I wanted to thank you so much for visiting us in SCRB 167 this year. As we close out another year I have been receiving many notes from students about how this is their favorite class they have taken at Harvard. Over and over they say that this is in large part due to the fact that they get to talk to patients and their families. The students get to hear from real people and to try to understand how disease and therapies affect them beyond what they can gather from a text book. It is so informative for them to hear your story, and to hear about your experiences with various therapies and recovery. We were so lucky to be able to learn so much from you — the story of your son’s battle with NEMO, how it brought you to the US, the amazing success with PGD, and your work in patient advocacy. It was also wonderful to see how well your children are doing now in the years post transplant. Thank you so much for visiting and for being so giving with your time and the most personal details of your life. We all appreciate you so much. I hope that you are having a lovely spring! thank you” – Jule Perlin, SCRB 167 Head TA
