Navigating Regulatory Hurdles and Informed Decision Making for Clinical Genome Sequencing DVD - June 11, 2012
Part 1:
The Diagnostic Odyssey for Genome Sequencing
The move to push genome sequencing into routine clinical practice requires arguably as much skill in navigating bureaucracy as mapping and interpreting base pairs. This short course provides practical
information on crafting clinical sequencing and analysis pipeline strategies while navigating the route of CAP and CLIA certification by those who have sailed through these uncharted waters.
Part 2:
The Saga of Genomic Interpretation for Physicians, Payers, Patients
To succeed, clinical genome sequencing must have the ability to enhance medical decision making. Primary care physicians are often on the front line of responding to "what does this mean/what do I do?"
questions. Their informed response is a saga of detailed reports including 1) physicians who order the genomic test 2) laboratory testing personnel who run the test and generate the data 3) bioinformaticists
who prepare reports by aligning, annotating, and analyzing the genomic data 4) molecular pathologists who interpret the data and confirm clinical relevance 5) physicians who communicate results back to the
patients 6) genetic counselors who advise patients and 7) patients who respond to treatment. Step by step informed decisions will lead to the success of the clinical genomics saga.

Software for Clinical Genomics DVD - April 24, 2012
Genomic technologies hold the potential to improve diagnosis and treatment of inherited disease and cancer, as well as the move towards personalized medicine. However, genomic data is complex and is not well
integrated with software systems to support existing diagnostics, such as anatomic pathology and clinical pathology reporting systems needed for integrated diagnostics.
