A 2019 quote about me: "Solving the last part of the puzzle proved the most challenging but, thanks to Sue's dogged determination, the mystery of the lost photos was finally cleared up when we traced some of Effie's living relatives" 😊

153 years after Dr George Huntington’s paper “On Chorea” was published describing the disease now known as Huntington’s disease, and 32 years after the discovery of the huntingtin gene, I’m thrilled beyond description to read “Huntington's disease successfully treated for first time”
