Abstract
Join us to discover how Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) can help you in the characterization of complex samples. OGM is a non-sequencing technique that provides a high-resolution view of intact, long DNA molecules free from the bias and errors introduced by Next-Generation Sequencing. Automatically identify all structural variants, genome-wide, starting at 500bp, including complex rearrangements and with sensitivity down to 1% allele fraction. Structural variants have nowhere to hide.
 
Learning Objectives
  • Explain how Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) overcomes the limitations of NGS addressing cancer samples
  • Demonstrate the OGM value proposition in identifying actionable/druggable events in cancer
  • Master the characterization of solid tumor samples to glean a deeper understanding of the complex tumor genetic landscape
