“Navigating Genetic Disease Testing: A Personal Story” | Seth Rotberg | TEDxNatick

The increasing availability of advanced genetic testing is enabling thousands of people to learn that they have an increased chance of falling prey to a potentially devastating disease in the future. What we do with that information and how it can change our lives and the lives of those around us are deeply emotional issues. Seth Rotberg shares his compelling journey of being tested for Huntington’s Disease and the implications of sharing those results. Seth grew up in Natick and graduated from Natick High School. Hes currently pursuing a Master’s in Nonprofit Management at DePaul University. Seth is passionate about bringing his personal experiences to advance the mission of nonprofit organizations, and currently sits on the Board of Trustees for the Huntington's Disease Youth Organization. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
