Andrew is the father of Diego, who was diagnosed with peroxisome biogenesis disorder (PBD), a rare and potentially devastating genetic condition affecting an organelle found in every cell of the body.
Andrew shares the emotional reality of receiving a diagnosis when doctors could not tell his family what the future would look like, and that there were no treatments available. But alongside the uncertainty came a determination to understand the disease and do something about it. What began with Andrew learning how to read scientific papers and reaching out to researchers eventually led him to leave his career and work full-time to build an ecosystem around peroxisome research.
The conversation goes beyond Diego's story. Andrew explains why the peroxisome has historically received far less attention and funding than other areas of biology, and why changing that requires more than scientific discovery.
Ultimately, this is a story about turning an incredibly difficult diagnosis into purpose, while never losing sight of the child and family at the heart of it.
Andrew chose the song Un Poco Loco by Anthony Gonzalez and Gael García Bernal.
