About this webinar

August 11, 2021

Presented By: Nate Fortier, PhD, Director of Research

Golden Helix supports performing repeatable clinical workflows designed to meet the needs of your lab's clinical genetic tests. A critical component of any genetic test is the reporting of clinically significant genes and the ability to limit interpretations to a predefined set of test-specific genes. This webinar will cover the upcoming “Managed Gene List” feature of VarSeq and VSClinical which enables the defining and re-use of gene lists outside of individual product templates.
 
The community has stepped up to provide disease-specific gene lists that are validated and well-researched for specific genetic disorders. In this webinar, we will discuss how these gene lists can be incorporated into your VSClinical workflows and we will demonstrate how these gene lists can be modified to meet the specific needs of your lab.
 
Things you will learn:
  • How to manage gene lists in a single location and use them for filtering, annotation, and reporting
  • How to use the recently released ACMG Secondary Findings v3.0 list for reporting incidental findings
  • How to leverage the well-researched PanelApp knowledgebase to construct your gene lists based on different levels of evidence for a specific disease
  • How to define gene lists based on the specific phenotypes and disorders you are targeting with your tests
