GTC’s Clinical Sequencing Workshop to Be Held at Hyatt Harborside, Boston, on May 29, 2012

Next-generation sequencing is undergoing accelerating translation into the clinical realm and is transforming the research sequencing landscape. Several clinical diagnostic tests are available that employ next-generation sequencing and many companies/laboratories have announced launch dates and development plans for additional tests. Some of these products afford improvements on existing themes by harnessing the capacity of next-generation sequencers to increase clinical sensitivity by analyzing disease loci more comprehensively than previously possible. Other products exploit unique characteristics of next-generation sequencing methods to enable entirely new diagnostic assays. These technologies have enabled a plethora of new discoveries by allowing us to answer questions more cost-effectively than in past and ask questions that were impossible to address by capillary electrophoresis sequencing or high density chip platforms.
