Leveraging the Electronic Medical Record for Genomic Interpretation

Satellite meeting to the American Society of Human Genetics' Annual Meeting.


Genetics and genomics research now includes approaches that integrate laboratory data with electronic medical record (EMR) systems for genomic discovery and implementing genomic medicine in the clinic. These avenues are being addressed through multiple initiatives around the world. This year's HGVS meeting will present speakers who represent several ongoing projects focused on leveraging the EMR to help interpret genetic variation, highlighting bench-to-bedside and bedside-to-bench approaches.
