Project Summary

We will develop policies and practices for individualized evidence-based medical practice, add to the database of variant classifications, accomplish discovery through sequencing of clinically significant genes, and improve the linking of high-throughput genomic methods to data extracted from electronic health records for regional and national “mega-epidemiology”, focusing on colorectal cancer/polyposis, triglycerides, and neutrophil count.
