To all participants in the KLS research program:
I would like to let you know that I am leaving Stanford University at the end of April to begin medical school in the fall. Please know that the KLS research program at Stanford University will continue. The lab is in the process of hiring a replacement and the new research assistant will introduce himself or herself on the KLS Foundation website shortly.
The 21 months that I have spent researching KLS and interacting with patients and families has been an incredible experience that I will not soon forget. The strength of character demonstrated by each patient in the face of such a difficult condition humbles me on a regular basis, and the unconditional love and support showered on them by their friends and families fills my heart to bursting. You are an incredible community and I wish you all the very best in the future.
Wishing you all good health,
Jacob Markovitz
Clinical Research Assistant
