What will I learn?
This Genomics Course provides a practical, complete workflow for whole-exome sequencing in rare family disorders. Learn study design, raw data quality checks, alignment, variant calling, and joint genotyping using current best practices. Gain hands-on skills in annotation, population frequency filtering, variant prioritisation, validation, and clinical reporting, with clear examples focused on inherited cancer risks.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- WES study design: plan small family exome projects for rare Mendelian disease.
- Read alignment & QC: align WES reads, assess quality, and fix common artefacts.
- Variant calling & filtering: run germline callers and tune cutoffs for clean VCFs.
- Annotation & prioritisation: use gnomAD, ClinVar, and in silico scores to rank hits.
- Clinical interpretation: classify variants with ACMG rules and draft clear reports.
