Even amid setbacks, he defended the U.S. approach and said force alone couldn’t stabilize weak states and protect U.S. interests against the risk of violence spilling out.

In the U.S., newborns are screened for treatable genetic conditions. In Senegal, newborn screening is not routine. Infants who appear healthy at birth might go undiagnosed and experience irreversible decline. Glutaric acidemia type I, for example, can cause brain damage, seizures, coma and early death.Sané is waiting for genetic testing results for Aissata’s one-year-old sister Aminata. Patients can live long, healthy lives if they start treatment before the onset of symptoms. That includes following a strict diet, avoiding protein-rich foods like nuts, fish and meat and taking the supplement L-carnitine. Though consultation with Rodriguez was free, lifelong treatment is not. If Aminata shares her sister’s disease, Sané will need government assistance to buy medication.

Prof. Moustapha Ndiaye, head of the neurology department at Fann, hopes young physicians will graduate prepared to assist rare disease patients not just in Senegal but in other African countries.“Students travel from across Africa to study here,” Ndiaye said.At the start of her career, Dr. Henriette Senghor saw patients who were hospitalized for months. Some died, and no one knew why.

“There was this problem—there was this void,” said Senghor, who’s now training with Rodriguez.

In 2021, Rodriguez established a partnership between the Cheikh Anta Diop University of Dakar and CNAG, the National Center for Genomic Analysis in Barcelona. Rodriguez collects patients’ blood samples and delivers the extracted DNA to Barcelona, where scientists sequence it, storing the answers it holds in a large database. Almost 1,300 participants—patients and families—have enrolled in his study of rare disease in West Africa.para quien la votación del domingo será ahora determinante a la hora de medir su poder de convocatoria. Si bien los partidos políticos no pueden promover a ningún candidato, desde el gobierno se ha insistido a sus seguidores a participar en la votación.

“Será un indicador para ver qué tanto control y tanta fuerza tiene la presidenta en el interior del partido y también qué tanto peso e influencia tienen en los estados”, apuntó el politólogo y consultor político Javier Rosiles Salas.que llegan avalados por el oficialismo —que salieron

— representan más del doble que los respaldados por sus críticos, esto es, por el mismo entorno judicial. Las candidaturas se definieron a través de tres comités, uno del Poder Judicial, otro del Ejecutivo y un tercero del Legislativo.Los listados de los dos últimos comités estuvieron integrados por personas afines al partido gobernante Morena que dominaron la selección de la mayoría de los aspirantes, afirmó el profesor de Ciencias Políticas y Derecho del Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México, el doctor Julio Ríos Figueroa.
