Introducing the eAcademy app
Hi, I'm Dan Lewi and I'm from The Cure & Action for Tay-Sachs (CATS) Foundation
and we are the creators of the
eAcademy for Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff Disease app which you've downloaded.
We believe that this app will make a huge difference in helping you care for a
family member affected by either Tay-Sachs or Sandhoff disease.
The development of this app would not have been possible without the generous support
of Genzyme and their Patient Advocacy Leadership Awards.
The CATS Foundation was a winner of one of these award in 2014, and it is to them
that we say a huge thank you to.
Using the eAcademy app is relatively simple, and all you need to do is to
search through the various categories on the home page.
You will be able to see the sub-sections within each category, where they
all have their own video and text summary.
The videos have been created by using interviews with families who have
someone affected by Tay-Sachs or Sandhoff disease, healthcare professionals,
and medical specialists.
We hope that this will give you a unique insight into each category within our app
as you will be able to hear detailed medical descriptions of something,
such as a symptom, and then how that symptom is managed by the family.
If you have an questions about the app, the content, or want to get in touch
with us, then please send us an email or visit our website.
Please enjoy the eAcademy for Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff Disease and we hope
it helps you and your family.
