Turnkey resources: The Genetics Tool Kit

Genomic Medicine is an incredibly fast moving field awash in information. Successful practice requires ongoing access to authoritative and regularly-updated, yet focused resources for both providers and patients. Many resources are available on the web. This session highlights and demonstrates several key resources from this meeting’s resource toolkit that are particularly valuable sources of information and education needed for competent (and confident) patient-provider interactions involving genes and genomes.

Learning Objectives:

• Locate two authoritative web resources helpful for providers and patients for learning about specific rare disorders.
• Identify online information that is systematically evaluated and presented in a structured format that helps interpret a DNA sequence variant for clinical validity.
