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 diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment selection in human disease.

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.

We invite you to attend and highly encourage you to present. If you have a presentation (15-20 minutes), they can be accommodated until our time is full.  We are also soliciting interesting case presentations of up to 10 minutes.  

You can indicate whether you are bringing a case on the registration form.

Dr. Adam Smith, Assistant Professor in the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology at the University of Toronto

Dr. Eric McGinnis, Clinical Assistant Professor, Department of Pathology, University of British Columbia
