[JKS11] Practical Education Seminar 11
Fourth practical education seminar of genetics

Sat. Jun 17, 2017 2:30 PM - 5:30 PM Room No.7 (10F Conference Room 1004-1005)

[Aim]
Because of rapidly advancing genetic technology, more and more disorders in pediatric neurology require genetic tests using next generation sequencing (NGS). We pediatric neurologists need to understand how to interpret results of NGS, which are not same as those with conventional genetic tests. To achieve this goal, we will offer the hand-on seminar, “how to interpret NGS results.” Anybody who wishes to learn basic interpretation of NGS results is welcome to participate in the seminar. We are afraid to announce that only a limited number of participants can be enrolled due to the capacity.
