Given the current events in Lebanon, Lebanese physicians working there have been in the news extensively lately. Some have chosen to leave in search of a more stable life; some have chosen to stay, and some have chosen not to move back to Lebanon in the first place. We will interview Lebanese physicians working in Lebanon and beyond to get their opinions about the events taking place in Lebanon, the future of medicine in Lebanon, and the role Lebanese physicians play worldwide in their respective fields, and their connections to their home county. We will highlight success stories, stories that were not so successful, and everything in between. Medical students, physicians-in-training, and attending physicians at different points in their careers will be interviewed. We hope you will find this podcast beneficial and exciting!

In this episode with Dr. Cybel Mehawej of the Lebanese American University Human Genetics Department, and co-hosted with MohammadAli Jardaly, we explore the gene discovery process at the intersection of genetics and immunology. Dr. Mehawej, along with the team at the LAU Medical Center (Dr. Andre Megarbane, Dr. Eliane Choueiri) have discovered 2 genes related to immunodeficiency over the past year. We discuss the process of gene discovery and its eventual impact on monitoring and treatment of these rare diseases. Whether you are a scientist, student, or simply curious about how genetics impacts health and disease, this podcast offers a rich resource and a window into the field of immunogenetics.
