Diagnosing the undiagnosed with long-read genome data


In this talk, Wendy Chung shares how her team at Boston Children's Hospital are using Oxford Nanopore sequencing to help uncover answers in unsolved, short-read negative rare disease cases.

See our blog article for more on how Dr Chung and others are demonstrating the potential of nanopore sequencing to reshape rare disease diagnosis in the future.
