PrintCharacterizing and Displaying Genetic Variants for Clinical Action Workshop
December 1-2, 2011
Marriott Washingtonian Center I
Gaithersburg, Md.
On Dec. 1-2, 2011, the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), organized a workshop — Characterizing and Displaying Genetic Variants for Clinical Action Workshop — at the Marriott Washingtonian Center I, Gaithersburg, Md. The goal of the workshop was to consider the processes and resources needed to identify clinically relevant genetic variants; to decide whether they are actionable and what the action should be; and to provide this information for clinical use.
Moderated discussions in the workshop addressed topics such as:
Perspectives on Existing Genetic Variation Resources Current Approaches for Identifying Genetic Variants for Clinical Use Developing Consensus for Binning Variants for Clinical Use Creating a Translation Loop for Genomic Medicine Translating Actionable Variants into Evidence-Based Practice
The agenda with associated PowerPoint presentations and videos from the workshop are linked below.
