Unlocking Bryson's Brain

When Keith McArthur’s son Bryson was born, he was a happy and loving baby. Soon, though, Bryson began missing developmental milestones and doctors determined he had a neurological disorder. After nearly a decade, Bryson was diagnosed with a variant in his GRIN1 gene. Keith McArthur, who today is CEO and head of science for the CureGRIN Foundation, tells Bryson’s story in an eight-part podcast series produced with the CBC called Unlocking Bryson’s Brain (Hyperurl.co/Bryson). We spoke to McArthur about Bryson, the efforts of the CureGRIN Foundation to find a cure for the condition, and what he hope to accomplish with the podcast series.
