Thank you Huntington's Disease Society of America for the space and this incredible research opportunity! It was amazing to see this group come together to work towards a common goal to better understand HD. This was HDSA’s 39th convention, and this year we saw promising technology and remote applications within the field. Thank you to everyone who made this event happen, and a very special thanks to all of the participants we saw over the 3 days!! Couldn’t do any of this without you!

An Alnylam team took steps to raise funds for the Huntington's Disease Society of America —literally. 👣 With kids in tow, colleagues participated in Team Hope Walk last weekend on Castle Island in Boston. We’re raising awareness about this devastating #RareDisease. Learn more about #HuntingtonsDisease: https://hdsa.org/
