Ryan was diagnosed with plaque psoriasis after a silly mishap in elementary school left him with a hard, scaly patch on his scalp. After living with the autoimmune skin condition for 22 years, he’s reached the point at which psoriasis no longer has a foothold in his life. In this video, he shares his story and what he wishes he knew sooner, such as the difference between psoriasis and eczema as well as the realization that, ultimately, nobody really cares or notices as much as you think they will. He also shares how his passion for fitness has helped rebuild his confidence and how he prevents flair-ups with regular shots.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a hereditary disease that causes progressive weakness and can lead to death. Before a gene therapy medication was developed that changes the way the broken gene in SMA is expressed, there was no way to slow the progression of weakness. Thanks to a huge team effort at Johns Hopkins, this life saving medication has been given over 500 times and has made a profound impact on patients’ lives.

Medicine Video: Glioblastoma and BRAF Gene Mutation | Courtney’s Story
After being diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor in 2008, Courtney’s prognosis was not good. A referral to Johns Hopkins neuro-oncologist Karisa Schreck and neurosurgeon Jon Weingart changed the course of her illness. They identified the tumor as having a specific mutation in the BRAF gene, and they used a combination of surgery, conventional chemoradiation and targeted therapy to reduce its size and then keep the cancer in remission. Courtney is incredibly thankful to be able to enjoy life as a wife and a mother — and to raise chickens. #Glioblastoma #BRAFgene #JohnsHopkins
