This event will feature Susan Weiss Leibman, author of The Dressmaker’s Mirror: Sudden Death, Genetics, and a Jewish Family’s Secret.

She will share her journey that turned into one of discovery and empowerment.

We will also be joined by Lisa Marie Castillo, Genetic Counselor and Associate Professor of Medicine and Cardiology at Northwestern, who will speak about her role in discovering this deadly gene mutation and the importance of genetic screening to save families from future loss.
