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 check, 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 inherited diseases.
- Read alignment & QC: align WES reads, check quality, and fix common issues.
- Variant calling & filtering: run inherited variant callers and adjust cutoffs for clean VCF files.
- Annotation & prioritisation: use gnomAD, ClinVar, and computational scores to rank variants.
- Clinical interpretation: classify variants with ACMG guidelines and prepare clear reports.
