Pre-AP Genetic Disorder Brochure Project

Handout is on the handouts tab of my website, and whatever disorder you signed up for, I have records in case you forget. 
DUE 3/3-4 (this is changed to 2 days later)     :)

If you are looking for who discovered your disorder, enter your disorder name into Google and the words "first described."

I have included a link for those of you Severe Combined Immunodeficiency as I have been asked.  If you have any links that you found to be helpful, feel free to post them in the comments.
