The most exciting part for me will be seeing how this work will improve the lives of those suffering from hard to diagnose neurological and neuromuscular genetic disorders.
Excited to receive VMRAF 💰 by @VicGovAu @VicGov_DJSIR to pilot @nanopore to detect repeat expansion disorders! This will enable us to substantially improve #genetic #diagnosis for many #neurological conditions. djsir.vic.gov.au/medical-res… @MCRI_for_kids @TeamVCGS

Translating the outcomes of this project will be transformative for mainstreaming #genomics in Australian healthcare. Exciting times!
The diagnosis of rare genetic disorders is one of the places where AI will have the earliest and largest clinical impact. Delighted to be leading a new consortium to help make this happen, along with an awesome team of Australian and global partners: mcri.edu.au/news/funding-awa…

Stoked that we get to extend our already hyper-productive work together in a whole bunch of fun new directions, and help so many more patients! (Here’s a Thor-themed fist bump to celebrate 🥳)

More on automated reanalysis in A1 #eshg2024 @DanyaVears @MCRI_for_kids What do professionals, patients and the public think? Many benefits but concerns about process issues, oversight by humans, consent and recontact
