Today, I’m joined by the incredible Dr. Nora Abdul-Hussein, a physician-scientist, medical geneticist, and one of the leading voices in the field of genomic medicine. In this episode, Dr. Abdul-Hussein and I dig into a huge question—why do two people taking the exact same GLP-1 medication have such wildly different results, from weight loss to side effect profiles? She shares her unique path from internal medicine to cutting-edge population genomics, and how her work at 23andMe is beginning to answer some of medicine’s toughest puzzles.
