The update to Senate Resolution 1408 includes a change to the name of a partner organization from "Hobert H. Lurie" to "Robert H. Lurie." This adjustment is important as it ensures that the resolution correctly identifies the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital, which is the organization involved. Accurate naming fosters proper recognition and support for the initiatives related to KCNQ2 Encephalopathy.
