Optical Genome Mapping community of interest meeting: April 2024
On behalf of The Office of Continuous Professional Development at the Department of Laboratory Medicine & Pathobiology, University of Toronto, we invite you to join us for The Community of Interest Optical Genome Mapping meeting.
Everyone with an interest in optical genome mapping is invited and welcome!
The goal is to create a forum to facilitate knowledge exchange on the topic of optical genome mapping across the continuum of validation and use of the technology for the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment prediction.
We aim to educate genetic professionals, including service providers from the CCMG medical and laboratory geneticists community, laboratory professionals (e.g. technicians, technologists), pathologists and oncologists about this technology and its implementation.
Topics
We plan to send a short survey to participants to survey OGM adoption at your centres and share results with participants during the presentation. We also hope to include discussion about External Quality Assessment including Alternate Testing strategies (inter-lab exchanges). Other topics of interest are welcome.
You are welcome to bring a case for discussion, please indicate so in the registration.
