If you missed Season 1 on Sarepta’s social media channels, you can find all 10 archived episodes on Sarepta’s YouTube channel.
About the Talent Search – GT-FAQ External Host:
GT-FAQ was designed to be for the community. Sarepta is therefore seeking members of the Duchenne or LGMD communities who would like to be a GT-FAQ host. The host responsibility is to introduce themselves and ask the GT-FAQ question – no science background is required!
Who they are looking for:
- A member of the Duchenne or LGMD community who enjoys any of the following: public speaking, broadcasting/podcasting, film, teaching, or science!
- Curiosity! A science degree is not a requirement. A host would work with the Sarepta team to film themselves asking the question that will be answered in the GT-FAQ episode.
- All ages welcome. If under 18yrs, a parent/guardian must be present and complete necessary paperwork
- ~1hr time commitment in April/May (all virtual), including prep emails, a prep call, and a filming session
- Access to an iPhone, preferably with WiFi (for virtual filming purposes)
- US resident
