About Evenings With Genetics
Evenings with Genetics is a seminar series about genetics and your family’s health. This series offers the most current information on care and research for many genetic conditions and is open to the public.
Our goal is to highlight the advances in genetic research as well as encourage networking within our community.
The Evenings with Genetics seminars are sponsored by the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children Hospital.

Baylor College of Medicine, in partnership with the Undiagnosed Diseases Network Foundation, is excited to invite you to our first free in-person community event.
This event is meant to encourage connection and relationship building among patients and families searching for their diagnosis or who have an ultra-rare condition and the clinicians, researchers and community partners who are supporting them on their journey.
At this event, you will be able to connect with others who share your journey, learn about what the UDNF has to offer and hear directly from Baylor and UDNF staff including Dr. Brendan Lee, Jill Mokry and Michele Herndon.

Children's Book Read-Along
Favorite children’s books are read by family members and friends of our faculty and staff along with their pets! This video project was inspired by PRISMS, the support group for Smith-Magenis Syndrome and directed by Dr. Sarah Elsea.
The goal of this project is to make quarantine a little bit easier for some of the families we work with every day, whether in the clinic or through research studies.
