On behalf of @genomicmedswe, I participated Dec 1 in a lunch discussion in London, in the attendance of Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and Prince Daniel, to celebrate the MoU on Life Sciences between 🇬🇧and 🇸🇪. Thanks to the MoU a project on WGS in pediatric cancer is ongoing.

[Juleen R. Zierath @JuleenRZierath]

I had a fabulous visit to the Center for Cardiometabolic Science at the University of Louisville! I especially enjoyed meeting all the Phd and postdoc fellows, as well as the amazing center faculty! Many thanks for your hospitality! 💪👍

[SRP DIABETES @srp_diabetes]

We had a fantastic KI #diabetes Day! Thanks so much to Ben Stocks, @kaesser , Navdeep Chandel, Dame Frances Ashcroft @SarahIBEx @cevansmo @TimoMueller_IDO @Z_GerhartHines for sharing your data and knowledge in such a great way! We had a full house with lot of good discussions.

Ny studie av Gisela Barbany och Fatemah Rezayee mfl vid grp klinisk genetik visar att helgenomsekvensering kan upptäcka kliniskt relevanta genomiska avvikelser vid akut lymfatisk leukemi hos barn

[Barncancerfonden @barncancerfond]

Barn som drabbats av leukemi kan tack vare helgenomsekvensering få mer individanpassad cancerbehandling. Ny information gör att såväl över- som underbehandling kan undvikas. Nu hoppas forskarna att metoden på sikt kan fasa ut dagens diagnosmetoder.

Anna Lindstrand och kollegor vid @karolinskainst @KarolinskaUnsju @genomicmedswe @liu_universitet visar i ny studie att kostnadseffektiviteten för att diagnostisera IF är större vid WGS än vid traditionell CMA utredning. https://t.co/zBUmpUrWLm

[Karolinska Univ.sjuk @KarolinskaUnsju]

Akut porfyri är en ovanlig och smärtsam sjukdom som främst drabbar unga kvinnor. Tidigare behövde de svårast sjuka levertransplantation. Överläkare Eliane Sardh har med #precisionsmedicin på #Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset tagit fram en ny behandling. https://t.co/OfNCyKj0Ft
