Brad Swail started The Deletion Duplication Alliance with his wife, Laura, as part of their mission to find new and emerging technologies to help their son, who was diagnosed with 8p inverted deletion duplication syndrome. While an ultra-rare diagnosis like that one felt like a punch to the gut at first, Brad is highly motivated to fight back with permanent solutions for his son, and all others who have been told that all they can do is a lifetime of physical and occupational therapy.
