Familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) is a rare, genetic disorder that prevents the body from digesting fats and severely impairs the body’s ability to remove triglycerides from the bloodstream. People #livingwithFCS have chronic health issues such as fatigue and severe, recurrent abdominal pain and are also at high risk for potentially life-threatening acute pancreatitis (painful swelling of the pancreas).

September is #Leukodystrophy Awareness Month, drawing attention to a group of genetic disorders that affect the central nervous system and the community of people who live with them. Individually, each leukodystrophy is considered rare, but collectively, these progressive disorders impact more people than you might think.

Transthyretin amyloidosis (#ATTR) requires timely recognition of symptoms. However, accurate diagnosis can take more than three years, as symptoms are often similar to those of other more common conditions. That’s why increased knowledge about this #RareDisease is critical and may help lead to quicker diagnosis and better outcomes for patients. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/etb8dfX4

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the exceptional undergraduate and graduate students who joined the Ionis intern program this summer! Working closely with Ionis mentors, our interns brought fresh perspectives and positive energy as they gained hands-on experience in the biotech/pharmaceutical industry and contributed to our mission of improving patients’ lives. Ions across every department got to meet and work with our interns, and they dove head-first into our culture at Summer Picnic, Lunch & Learns, Lagoon Day and more.

It was a privilege to host members of the local California neurological disorders community on August 7th for our 9th annual Surf Away SMA! Nearly 80 Ionis volunteers, along with employees from Adapt Functional Movement Center, facilitated not only surfing, but also a hands-on tide pool, virtual reality tent, airbrush body art, therapeutic stretching and massage, food, and socializing. These adaptive experiences ensured the day was a celebration of the diverse abilities across this community. Volunteers and attendees alike agreed that the day was a huge success! According to one attendee, “[Surf Away] is something I look forward to every year! From getting back into the water, to having the water splash against my face and body, to tasting the salt water. Reflecting on this event from 2016 and looking at the event now – wow! Look at how much it's grown! It puts smiles on young kids' faces who have SMA... and this 66-year-old face too!”

Today we recognize Disability Independence Day, commemorating the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) over 30 years ago! At Ionis, we continuously strive to gain a deeper understanding of the lived experiences of caregivers and patients with differing abilities, and recently, our Quality Assurance and Manufacturing Operations groups hosted “I AM POSSIBLE,” a teambuilding event with support from members of Adapt Functional Movement Center alongside talented athletes from Challenged Athletes Foundation. Through adaptive experiences including seated volleyball, hand cycling, lift and transfer technique demos, therapeutic massage, live music, and socializing, we raised awareness of these lived experiences amongst our Ions in a fun and safe environment!
