I am a genetics geek (molecular geneticist) working at #RCIGM. I run, bike, curl, hike and am looking for the best hot chocolates. Opinions are my own.

The GEMINI study, led by researchers at Tufts Medical Center, has found #WholeGenomeSequencing to be nearly twice as effective as a targeted gene sequencing test at diagnosing genetic disorders in newborns & infants. Full study in @JAMA: jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… #genomics

The GEMINI study revealed that #WholeGenomeSequencing had a much higher diagnosis rate of 49%, compared to the standard gene panel's 27%. This emphasizes the potential of whole genome sequencing as a more effective diagnostic tool. More in STAT: statnews.com/2023/07/11/inf…

As part of #gnomAD v4, in collaboration with the Talkowski Lab, we have released 1,199,117 genome SVs and 66,903 rare exome CNVs. These data represent the first gnomAD SV dataset released native to the GRCh38 reference genome. (1/2)

Koyabashi - Invitae - #ASHG23 looking at reclassification over 8 years. Of LP variants 99.8% went to P and only 0.16% went downgrade. 98.5% of LB went to B and showed that many more could have. Reclassified 70K VUS. 80% went Benign, remainder towards Pathogenic.

#P1live F1 seems to have become a wind tunnel competition of late. Are we going to see increased on track disparity between the wind tunnel haves and have-nots?
