Mario arrived on life support — ultra-rapid WGS confirmed why he needed a heart transplant
We are heading up a newborn sequencing consortium that will revolutionize and shorten the diagnostic journey.
We’re setting a new standard of care for newborns and children with rare undiagnosed diseases.
Earlier this summer, Florida and Arizona started offering Medicaid coverage for rapid whole genome sequencing. Find out more about the latest policies.
WASHINGTON POST: DNA sequencing to diagnose newborns could end up saving much more money — especially if done for babies who are sick. In a study funded by the state of California called Project Baby Bear, researcher Stephen Kingsmore found that sequencing the whole genomes of 178 infants hospitalized in intensive care saved $2.5 million.
This study will help medical teams determine the pathogenicity of a variant in the STXBP1 gene – which can cause severe seizures, intellectual disability, and developmental delays — to swiftly end the diagnostic odyssey for patients and their families.
