Integrating Large-Scale Genomic Information into Clinical Practice
July 19, 2011
The Keck Center of the National Academies
500 Fifth Street, N.W.
Washington, DC 20001
MEETING OBJECTIVE
To highlight and identify the challenges and opportunities in integrating large-scale genomic information into clinical practice.
Workshop Assumptions:
• Sequencing technology will advance enough to produce clinically meaningful results.
• Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) will be cost-effective and comparable to other diagnostic tests.
