#InTheNews: Did you know that genetic factors play a role in up to 10% of all cases of breast and ovarian cancer? A new study in JAMA Network Open we worked on reveals that many patients are unaware they carry genetic risk factors for these diseases. Our study partner, Joseph Grzymski, Chief Genomics Officer at Renown Health, discussed these findings with Maggie McGrath of ForbesWomen, highlighting what this means for both patients and providers across the U.S. Watch the full interview to learn more about the impact of genetic screening, cost barriers, and what's next in cancer prevention efforts. https://bit.ly/486nqv7 #BreastCancerAwareness #GeneticScreening #WomensHealth #CancerPrevention

#InTheNews: We recently partnered with Renown Health and the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine on a study that found substantial gaps exist in identifying and testing patients who have family history for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. In fact, up to 80% of women with pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants for breast cancer have not undergone genetic testing, despite their lifetime risk for breast cancer exceeding 50%. So how do we create a proactive approach to family history assessment and genetic screening in order to detect risk early?

At Helix, we are committed to an inclusive and diverse workplace. We have created an Employee Resource Group (ERG) focused on Neurodiversity, led by Nick Armstrong and Suzanne Millward, MPH UXC. Last quarter, the Neurodiversity ERG swung into action by partnering with HR to support in-office accommodations requested by neurodiverse employees, such as noise-canceling headphones 🎧 and a quiet area in the office 🛋️. And we won’t be stopping here! This year, the ERG will be working on many other exciting initiatives, such as: ✅ Making educational neurodiversity content broadly available to all Helix employees 📚 ✅ Identifying and recommending inclusive leadership training for managers to better support neurodiverse career growth and development 🤝 ✅ Hiring a neurodiversity expert to host a training for Helix leaders on neurodiverse experiences in the workplace and how best to support neurodiverse employees 🧠 ✅ Identifying and recommending 2-3 accessibility technologies or general neurodiversity accommodations for use at Helix 🖥️ We look forward to continuing to engage with inclusive initiatives and supporting these impactful projects! 🌟 #HelixNeurodiversity #InclusiveWorkplace #DiversityAndInclusion #EmployeeResourceGroups #AccessibilityMatters #NeurodiverseWorkforce
