Jennah Foltz, CGC, from Indiana University Health, emphasizes the transformative power of Rapid Whole Genome Sequencing (rWGS) in driving proactive healthcare. By delivering earlier and more precise genetic insights, rWGS is becoming a critical tool, empowering patients and their families with faster, actionable answers, and paving the way for more informed care decisions. #NSGC24 #GeneChat #RapidGenomeSequencing #ProactiveHealthcare

Grateful for the opportunity to share my thoughts!

Honey Reddi, PhD, FACMG, SVP and Medical Director at Belay Diagnostics, provided valuable insights into how long-read sequencing and transcriptomics, when combined with Whole Genome and Whole Exome Sequencing, have the potential to help shorten the diagnostic odyssey for patients. Dr. Reddi also emphasized the importance of early intervention and the increasing need for strategic partnerships to drive innovation. #NSGC24 #GeneChat #GeneticTesting
