Carol Peyser at Feldman’s Books

Carol Peyser will star at two upcoming events at Feldman's bookstore in downtown Menlo Park, interviewing two senior genetic counselors from Stanford on October 15 and Dec 6. These relate to her debut novel hopefully in She Writes Press. Dancing With Fate centers around fraught matters of whether we humans want to know our genetic futures (as well as other themes). The first speaker specializes in testing for cancer genes but will also cover general caveats and cautions. The second will talk about testing for neurologic diseases like Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease (both with no cure so do people at risk want to know?) Carol will also share about the journey to her novel. Link to get tickets.
