Using targeted long-read sequencing of pharmacogenes to improve drug response predictions

Dr. Susan Kloet, Head of the Leiden Genome Technology Center, Leiden University Medical Center, The Netherlands

Join Dr. Kloet and her team's collaboration with Twist Bioscience in developing a long-read capture workflow for 21 pharmacogenes utilizing PacBio HiFi sequencing. The presentation will encompass benchmarking results regarding panel performance, alongside preliminary variant calling and analysis conducted on a clinical cohort.

 

Long-read panel sequencing for including problem genes and non-coding regions in genetic diagnostics

Prof. Dr. Johannes Zschocke, PhD.,  Institute of Human Genetics, Medical University Innsbruck, Austria

Discover the versatility of customized full-length gene enrichment coupled with PacBio multiplex HiFi long-read sequencing for comprehensive gene analysis. This rapid, cost-effective, and flexible approach is tailored for conditions influenced by a limited set of well-known genes, including complex or homologous "problem" genes demanding specialized diagnostic methodologies.
