Excited to share DGAP’s latest preprint, which explores new causes of male infertility!

[Dr. Samantha Schilit @SamSchilit]

Thrilled to share our preprint "SYCP2 translocation-mediated dysregulation and frameshift variants cause human male infertility!" It covers my PhD dissertation work, uncovering novel etiologies for male infertility. https://t.co/nwzQTOe0qw

DGAP’s Dr. @SamSchilit will be giving a seminar at @wesleyan_u tomorrow on novel genetic causes of male infertility. Wednesday, 4/18 in Shanklin 107.

DGAP's @SamSchilit will be defending her PhD dissertation next week! She will discuss her extensive research on identifying the cause of male infertility in one of our DGAP research subjects. All are welcome to attend her public dissertation defense seminar.

Congratulations to Morton lab members @SamSchilit and Netta Makinen on their elegant talks in the Human Reproduction and Fertility Section at #ASHG18 this morning!

Whole genome sequencing had a higher diagnostic yield than karyotype for chromosomal abnormalities in couples with recurrent miscarriage - shown by Elvis Dong of Chinese Univ of Hong Kong #ASHG18

[B. Monica Bowen, PhD @populiaison]

Harrison Brand at #ASHG18: WGS shows increased diagnostic yield over WES, CMA, and karyotyping combined. Detects balances translocations and had applicationa for de novo and prenatal findings.
