The promise of personalized medicine in cancer remains elusive, because no single technology can comprehensively detect all the rearrangements in the cancer genome. Bionano genome mapping detects all structural variant types genome-wide. Examples will be presented of how Bionano’s platform helps provide a molecular diagnosis for patients with undiagnosed genetic disorders, and how it elucidates genomic rearrangements in cancer that are missed by NGS and cytogenetic methods.
Lunch will be provided for those who register.
