A large fraction of the RNA transcribed in eukaryotic cells is rapidly degraded in the nucleus. A ...
Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are a group of more than 250 genetic disorders that disrupt the immune system, resulting in susceptibility to life-threatening infections, autoimmune disease...
In order to realize the benefits of personalized cancer therapy, increasing demands are placed upon clinical laboratories to provide timely, comprehensive, clinically actionable, and analytic...
Working with biology currently takes too long, costs too much, and fails too often. At the core of this is the complexity of the systems we are trying to understand, compounded by a lack of r...
Technological advances allow for the large scale sequencing of the whole human genome. Most studies have generated population-based information on human diversity using low to intermediate co...
The rapid implementation of next generation sequencing is changing how genetics and genomics are applied in a clinical setting. However, the quickly evolving technology can be challenging to...
Human breast tumors have been shown to exhibit extensive inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. While recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed us to deconvolute this heterogeneity,...
Technological advances have made genomic sequencing more affordable, efficient, and available. Questions related to the implementation and effects of large-scale sequencing in healthcare have...
New approaches to generate high-quality representations of human genomes and transcriptomes are now becoming available. In contrast to short-read “Whole-Genome” re-sequencing meth...
Advances in DNA sequencing technology are about to transform healthcare. Since completion of the human genome reference sequence ten years ago, there has been a 1-million fold im...

Oncologists and pathologists are increasingly utilizing information on genomic alterations in tumors to help guide patient care and treatment. Personalis, Inc., a genomic sequencing and inter...
Cancer remains the second leading cause of death in the United States. Most tumors arise from a myriad of genetic changes that dysregulate cell growth and prompt survival. Ident...
Success of the personalized medicine strategy depends on our ability to access the genetic variance landscape continuously before, during and after treatment. Liquid biopsies provide us...
Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have helped to accelerate the pace of discovery in the field of genetic disease research and testing. The ability to analyze multiple genes...
This session will give examples of the types of genetic tests that are most often ordered and what those tests are generally able to tell the physician and patient. The speakers will walk thr...
Medical genetics is a specialty of medicine that encompasses patients at all ages (prenatal, pediatric, adult), as well as all organ systems. As the genetic causes of more diseases have been ...
Given the challenges of replicating Parkinson’s disease in animal models, returning to models that are human-based and highly clinically characterized may provide the most successful pa...
