Genomic Testing is designed to help identify DNA alterations and is done on cancerous tissue in order to provide information with it. It evaluates the genes in a sample of diseased tissue from a cancer patient.
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...
In this time of incredible promise for genomic medicine, the Genomes2People (G2P) Research Program in Translational Genomics and Health Outcomes, directed by Robert C. Green, MD, MPH, is crea...
The Personalized Medicine Initiative (PMI) is a non-profit enterprise based in Vancouver, Canada that is focused on introducing personalized, molecularly-based medicine into the front lines o...
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...
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 ...
Genetic testing has been an important component of medical care for decades but the breadth and impact of testing has been steadily increasing as medical knowledge increases, appreciation of ...
Family history can be viewed as the first stop in the assessment of genetic risks for any individual. For many genetic disorders there will be no obvious signs of symptoms until significant m...
While next-generation sequencing has proven to be a very useful tool in basic research, two major hurdles remain for its broad adoption in the clinical research setting: lack of seamless work...
The advent of the microarray technology in 2000 has paved the way for advanced translational research methods that use molecular markers such as microRNA, proteins, metabolites and copy numbe...
Cell death is involved in diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration, and also has a natural role in the development of multicellular organisms. Although apoptosis has been well defined, a...
Personalised Healthcare is essential to AstraZeneca’s approach to drug development and is adopted by more than 80% of drug products in clinical development. Selection of the right patie...
While genomics has been used as a tool for research for many years, globally there is increasing momentum to deploy microbial genomics for routine public health microbiology. This technology...
Introduction and adoption of whole-genome sequencing has enabled new methods of investigation in the quest for answers in diagnostic odyssey cases as well as in the broader study of genetic d...
Next-generation sequencing has emerged as a valuable tool for generating patient-specific genetic information for clinical diagnostics and optimal selection of targeted therapies. The heterog...
