Thank you to @HSJ_Awards for our nomination for "Acute Sector Innovation of the Year" for our R14 rapid genome sequencing for acutely unwell babies and children service @ExeterGenomes - good luck to our colleagues representing the team tonight! You all do an amazing job 🩷
Our experts have launched a brilliant podcast this #WorldDiabetesDay. Mum Emma talks about Jack-diagnosed with neonatal #diabetes at 2wks. His life was transformed by switching treatment after our team found a genetic cause

Extremely honoured to have been chosen to receive this award. Looking forward to attending the Soirée in a couple of weeks and catching up with the wonderful @congenitalhi team @Exeter_Diabetes @HIgenes @ExeterMed
867 people living with congenital hyperinsulinism have benefitted from genetic testing as a result of this partnership. The reach of this project is huge - 61 countries and counting! @ExeterMed#ExeterDiabetes#openhyperinsulinismgenesproject
Fantastic achievements! I'd also add that the first rapid genome test (R14) in the NHS in October 2022 is a milestone worth shouting about! 👏 Over 700 families have had this test since then 💥 @ExeterGenomes#NHS75
Great presentation from @KatMordue describing the potential power of Decision Support Software in laboratories. Excellent stuff from @UHP_NHS lab teams
An exciting opportunity to join our team @exeter_lab! Loads of really cool bioinformatics (with a direct impact on patients), a friendly team and the beautiful Devon countryside… what more could you want? ✨🧬

After years of searching, we have finally found it – a new, common genetic cause of #congenitalhyperinsulinism Until now these disease-causing variants have remained frustrating elusive, they had been hiding deep in the non-coding genome @uniofexeHLS@UniofExeter@Exeter_Diabetes
We have an exciting opportunity to join us in the Exeter Genomics Laboratory. We are now advertising a Band 4 FT Associate Genetic Technologist post @RoyalDevonNHS Closing date for applications next Monday 7th Nov. Full details: https://t.co/H10yb1ucFm
So cool to now offer this test @exeter_lab for patients across England. It's been a challenge and a pleasure to work on this pipeline, and I couldn't have asked for a better team of bioinformaticians and scientists to do it with @ExeterGenomes 💻✨🧬 https://t.co/bXg1stLl50
What a fantastic week! Our HoD Andy Parrish is Healthcare Scientist of the Year and @RDExeter brilliant this morning on @BBCRadio4 announcing our rapid Whole Genome Sequencing R14 service for acutely unwell babies & children👏 @ExeterGenomes and all our team - you're amazing💖
