Human Genetics Research Presentations and Resources
Stay up to date with new advances in human genetic disease research with access to recent presentations, posters, and literature covering variant discovery from SNPs to genome-wide CNVs and large chromosomal changes, to reproductive health research and gene function analysis.
From CMAP to NMAP: an integrated microarray approach to repositioning drugs for neurodegenerative disorders
David Chambers PhD,
Principal Investigator, Lecturer in Functional Genomics & Drug Discovery, Genomics Drug Discovery Unit, Wolfson Centre for Age-Related Diseases (CARD),
King's College London, UK
Spinal Muscular Atrophy and the difficult SMN1 gene
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is the second most common fatal autosomal recessive disorder. The genetic analysis is complicated by highly homologous genes.
Short tandem repeats (STRs) in Fragile X – detection using fragment analysis
Repetitive sequences are highly abundant and can play a role in disease.
Many complex genetic syndromes involve Copy Number Variants (CNVs) which can be identified in a single step using genome-wide microarray analysis.
Clinical Laboratory Geneticist, Clinical Genomics Lund, Sweden

The next generation of the heel prick test? Lessons from Norway.
At the Norwegian National Unit for Newborn Screening in Oslo, Dr. Asbjørg Stray-Pedersen has led a research programme integrating next generation sequencing in newborn screening.
Genomics lab of the future: productivity from digital science

FinnGen: a platform for drug target development and precision medicine
Samuli Ripatti,
Professor of Biometry, Dept of Public Health and Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland (FIMM), HiLIFE, University of Helsinki; Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, US
Targeted panels or exome—Which is the right NGS approach for inherited disease research?
Should I use a targeted panel or do exome sequencing? Targeted sequencing has gained popularity in clinical research, but how do you know if this is right for your research needs?
Investigating the genetic cause
of epilepsy
Sporadic cases of epilepsy might actually be carried by parents in a mosaic manner. This study identifies rare mosaic alleles using Ion Torrent next generation sequencing of candidate gene panels.
Skeletal muscle disorder causation revealed by next generation sequencing
More than 200 genes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neuromuscular disorders. This group tackles muscular dystrophy, congenital myopathy, metabolic myopathy and myofibrillar myopathy using four custom designed Ion AmpliSeq gene panels.
Scaling up genetic analysis projects with NGS
Copenhagen University Hospital Rigshospitalet
“In terms of exome sequencing we're now able to run trios on a single chip, two trios per day.”
Uncovering Alzheimer’s Biomarkers
Dr. Lesley Cheng discovers Alzheimer’s biomarkers from small miRNA yields extracted from exosomes or small serum samples.
How to combine genomics and health record data
The large FinnGen project combines genome and electronic health record data from 500,000 Finnish participants to study disease mechanisms in chronic disorders.
Next generation sequencing
Application of NGS to study inherited cardiomyopathy
Inherited disease research app note
