Health information about adults with Down syndrome: online video

Spend 90 minutes with Dr Brian Chicoine Director of the Adult Down Syndrome Center  (in Chicago) via the online edition of his presentation to the (US) National Down Syndrome Congress  annual convention in 2012, now freely available here.

Dr Chicoine introduces the aim of their work as 'keeping people with Down syndrome healthy, so they can really rock that extra chromosome'.

Well worth the time.

Dr Chicoine identifies this as the single most important lesson he teaches medical students and practitioners about their patients with Down syndrome.
