    [Short Course Personal Genomics: Variant Analysis & Interpretation with Public Data

    SHORT COURSE
    Personal Genomics: Variant Analysis and Interpretation with Public Data

    WHEN: Monday, June 22 | 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

    WHERE: Hotel Kabuki, San Francisco, California (Part of TCGC: The Clinical Genome Conference)

    PRICING & REGISTRATION: https://chidb.com/reg/clg/reg.asp

    INSTRUCTORS:
    KT Pickard, MBA, Founder, StartCodon
    Gabe Rudy, Vice President, Product & Engineering, Golden Helix


    Take a hands-on approach to learning about the power and limitations of current research, technology and public data sources to interpret the human genome of individuals outside of the clinical diagnosis context.

    Learning Objectives:

    How GWAS studies, price drops of NGS sequencing and the sharing of clinical classification of variants shape personal genomics.

    Pros and cons of SNP arrays, whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing in the interpretation of the genetics of healthy individuals.

    Public databases, websites and visualization tools for interpreting individuals' genetic variants.

    Hands-on case study of analyzing my own exome and other shared individual genomes, walking through the discrete steps to annotate, filter and explore variants of interest to an individual's outlook and wellness.

    How to spot false-positive variants at the aligned read level, and pull in multiple annotation sources to assess the bioinformatics evidence of a variant's pathogenicity.

    Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
    by SEQadmin2



    Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

    Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by GATTACAT
    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
