  • Wendy Chung: Genetic Sleuth Is Advocate for Families
    Spectrum | Autism Research News https://www.spectrumnews.org PROFILES Wendy Chung: Genetic sleuth is advocate for families BY DEBORAH RUDACILLE 21 JULY 2011 Triple threat: Colleagues say that Wendy Chung combines strengths in teaching, research and patient care with a finely tuned ethical sensibility. A few months ago, a young woman walked into Wendy Chung's office with a notebook and a flash drive. She said, "Here's my medical history, here's my genome, now you figure out what caused all this." This is exactly the kind of challenge that Chung relishes. A skilled genetic detective, she is adept at tracing an individual's symptoms to a particular genetic anomaly, teasing out its molecular ramifications and identifying the associated syndrome. According to those who know her well, that analytical bent is accompanied by a rare sensitivity. "I've known a lot of brilliant doctors and though she's at the top of the brilliance list, she also has a humanistic philosophy that animates everything she does," says Hamilton Cain, the father of one of Chung's patients. "She's not only thinking on all cylinders, but also feeling on all cylinders. She really connects with patients and their stories and their lives." Chung, who began her research career studying diabetes and obesity, is director of the clinical 1 / 4 Spectrum | Autism Research News https://www.spectrumnews.org genetics program at Columbia University Medical Center in New York as well as the university's fellowship program in clinical and molecular genetics. Two years ago, she moved into the autism field, accepting an invitation to serve as the principal investigator of the Simons Variation in Individuals Project (VIP), launched by the Simons Foundation, SFARI.org's parent organization.

Internists are gatekeepers and sources of information, often treating disorders for which PGD is possible. This quantitative study surveyed 220 US internists, who were found to be divided. Many would recommend PGD for cystic fibrosis (CF; 33.7%), breast cancer (BRCA; 23.4%), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP; 20.6%) and familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (19.9%), but few for social sex selection (5.2%); however, in each case, >50% were unsure.

  • Wendy Chung, M.D., Ph.D. Bio Sketch
    Wendy Chung, M.D., Ph.D. Bio Sketch Wendy Chung is a clinical and molecular geneticist who directs the clinical genetics program at Columbia University and performs human genetic research. She received her B.A. in biochemistry and economics from Cornell University, her M.D. from Cornell University Medical College, and her Ph.D. from The Rockefeller University in genetics. She directs research programs in human genetics of complex traits such as obesity, diabetes, breast cancer, and congenital heart disease. The goal of her research is to identify new genes for susceptibility to complex genetic traits to develop individualized risk assessment, prevention, and therapeutic interventions for these disorders. Clinically, she directs programs in risk assessment for oncogenetics, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, and diabetes and develops novel molecular diagnostic methods to improve genetic testing including preimplantation genetic diagnosis. She enjoys the challenges of genetics as a rapidly changing field of medicine and the ethical issues posed by research in human genetics. She lectures and writes often on the legal and social issues raised by genetic testing in asymptomatic individuals, disparities is access to genetic care, confidentiality and privacy of genetic information, and defining conditions for which prenatal genetic testing is or is not appropriate. She is a recipient of the American Academy of Pediatrics Young Investigator Award and is currently the Herbert Irving assistant professor of pediatrics and medicine. She strives to facilitate the integration of genetic medicine into all areas of health care in a medically, scientifically, and ethnically sound, accessible, and cost effective manner. .
