Genetics Clinical Grand Rounds: Exploring the clinical relevance of genes and variants for the improvement of patient care: from UDN to ClinGen to diagnostic lab
Program Objective(s):
1 Recognize the significance of the Undiagnosed Diseases Network projects to solve patients’ medical mysteries through team science using advanced technologies
1 Describe how ClinGen Variant Curation Expert Panels are developing gene-/disease- specific variant classification guidelines and the importance of ClinGen Gene Curation efforts on providing guidance for the selection of genes on laboratories’ clinical genetic testing panels
2 Summarize the advantages of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) as a first-tier genetic test comparing to the traditional WES and CMA combo.
