Ep 100 - Training Doctors for Rare Disorders with Dr. Mo Helgren and Camilo Zeballos Carvajal

1-0-0!!!! For our 100th episode, we celebrated a milestone live on the Weekend for Williams Broadcast. Jen couldn't join us this time, so Joel sat in to help Brenden lead the conversation. Together they welcomed two wonderful guests: Dr. Mo Helgren of the Frank H. Netter School of Medicine and her student Camilo Zeballos Carvajal, a fellow musician and rare disease advocate. The discussion explored how the next generation of doctors is learning to care for people with rare conditions, and how a shared love of music can open the door to that work.
