    My favourite part of the article: Some clinicians and scientists criticize giving genes frivolous, whimsical, or quirky names, calling it inappropriate that patients with "a serious illness or disability are told that they or their child have a mutation in a gene such as sonic hedgehog".

        @nerthos No one is safe from Sonic Hedgehog, we all live in fear that someone we love may be its next victim.
