In early 2023, a year after my son was diagnosed with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), I began experimenting with newly emerging artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support our family’s care journey. They showed promise but offered little practical help at the time. That changed dramatically last year, when large language models (LLMs) and other AI services […]
Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine in San Diego proved a game-changer in putting together the pieces. “Evan’s specialists were all based in Los Angeles, but in terms of somebody who was able to oversee such a complex situation, it was Rady’s that led the charge on that,” Scharf says. “They worked in collaboration with the Undiagnosed […]
