🚨 The 8th episode of our Beyond the Lab interview series is now live! 🎉

Welcome to our first episode of Beyond the Lab for 2026. As we mark our third year of supporting the Huntington’s disease community, Huntington’s Victoria is proud to continue creating space for conversations that matter! 

This episode features a compelling conversation with Cornelia Wellecke, exploring her research on understanding peer support through lived experience. Through her work with the Summer Foundation and La Trobe University, Cornelia shares why it is so important to listen directly to people who access peer support, rather than relying solely on literature or assumed outcomes. Her work highlights how centering community voices can shape stronger, more meaningful support systems for people impacted by Huntington’s disease.

Released during Rare Disease Month, this episode reflects our ongoing commitment to standing alongside our rare disease community and amplifying lived experience
