Outlook: Huntington's Disease
Incurable Disease Looms Before Those With Gene

Today there are thousands of Americans who have had themselves tested for the gene for Huntington's Disease and know they will get it. They've seen a parent suffer with it or die from it. But there's still no cure. As genetic testing advances, more and more Americans could find themselves in similar positions, dreading an all-too-familiar fate.
In an article in Sunday's Outlook section, Dr. Martha Nance, a Minneapolis neurologist who runs a Parkinson's Disease clinic and who is doing research on treatments for Huntington's, discusses the moving tale of one person who has the gene and the race to find a way to treat people like him.
Dr. Martha Nance will be online Monday, Sept. 26, at 1 p.m. ET to discuss her Sunday Outlook article on Huntington's Disease.
