Written by Victoria Janik | Jan 3, 2018 3:37:52 PM

Join our two-part webinar series focusing on infrastructure requirements to scale geno-pheno analysis and realize genomic-based clinical trials. Can’t make it? Register anyway and we’ll send you the recording.

Advances in DNA sequencing have created tremendous volumes of whole-genome sequence and multi-omics data, creating new opportunities to explore how the genome plays a role in human disease. As the use of human genomic information becomes more prevalent in research and clinical care, it is important to understand the responsibilities for handling of data in these contexts. The inclusion of genomic information has also shown reduction in costs and time, and improved results of clinical trials. The reduction in sequencing costs and increasing value of NGS in clinical trials is leading some organizations to incorporate NGS into the majority of their trials.
