hi hello hey, it’s springtime, which also means we get to recap one of our favorite things: the annual Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome family conference!

Back in 2021, we explained this very unique conference before back in episode 16 (!), so we recommend giving it a listen if you haven’t already. We love to recap these special times together like we did last year or even for the NOAH albinism conference in 2022. These conferences are like a world of their own, and we love sharing the magic with our listeners. Whether you’re part of our community and experienced it with us or if you’re learning about HPS for the first time, we hope you feel the love in this deep dive!

• Cass talks about the total solar eclipse and the American Council for the Blind’s broadcast using LIGHTSOUND devices that would play tones indicating how much of the sun was covered. The broadcast is available as a podcast and you too can experience the eclipse accessibly!
• Cass mentioned our cartoon buddy watch episode when talking about Avatar the Last Airbender
• Cass plugs our friend Liz Schafer’s session on how she sees with art. We highly recommend checking it out to get an idea on how we both see!
