| Title | Speakers | Date / Time / Location |
| Putting Patients First: Innovative Multiomic and Multimodal Solutions for Rare Disease Diagnostics | Christine Eng, MD Chris Sands |
March 13 // 12:30 pm – 1:00 pm // Exhibit Theater 2 |
Rare disease diagnosis is often limited by the blind spots of single‑method genomic testing. While genome sequencing provides a substantial percentage of patients with a diagnosis, gaps persist due to short-read sequencing coverage, lack of other omics and the continuous discovery of new gene–disease associations.
Baylor Genetics’ enhanced Whole Genome Sequencing platform expands clinical insights by incorporating multimodal data and integrated multiomic solutions. This approach strengthens diagnostic yield and provides more actionable information to guide patient care and outcomes.
