In a project lead by Dr. Kantipuly, musically produced by Dr. Frishkopf, lyrics written by ImmUnity Canada Board Memeber Andrea, and sang by Dr. Olga Zaitseva-Herz at the University of Alberta, Andrea’s son Jakob, had his genetic sequence transformed into music. The team hopes this project will help raise awareness of ADA-SCID, a type of immunodeficiency that meant Jakob was born with nearly no immune system.
You may have heard Andrea talk about this project with Dr. Frishkopf and Dr. Kantipuly on Episodes 4 & 5 of our Slice of PI Podcast. Their project has since made it to City News Edmonton & Global News, spreading awareness of PI across Canada and beyond!
