EP 80: Rare disease genomics and the 'near-coding' genome with Nicky Whiffin, Group Leader at the Wellcome Centre for Human Genetics
June 15, 2022
From decoding the genetics of rare disease using computational methods, to understanding the non-coding and 'near-coding' genome, this week Patrick is joined by Nicky Whiffin, Group Leader at the Wellcome Centre for Human Genetics and Sir Henry Dale Fellow at the University of Oxford. They discuss what it's like to create a brand new research group and the potential impact of whole genome sequencing on diagnosis rates.
