About Suzanne:

Suzanne Robotti started MedShadow Foundation in 2013 because she was harmed by a medicine called DES (diethylstilbestrol) that was given to her mother while pregnant and, as a result, was unable to have children. Generations later, this hormone disruptor has been found to cause rare cancers, autoimmune diseases and infertility.

In 2017, Robotti was appointed to the FDA Advisory Committee on Drug Safety and Risk Management, joining a panel of doctors and pharmacists as the sole consumer representative. Together, the Committee reviews research and decides if a drug is safe enough for use.
