RareBoost Seminar: ‘The Path to a Diagnosis: Complex Cases and Emerging Tools in an Undiagnosed Disease Clinic’
How can advanced genomic technologies and multidisciplinary collaboration help solve complex cases and shorten the diagnostic odyssey for people living with rare diseases?
Join us online on Monday, 9 November 2026, at 16:00 (Türkiye time) for a special RareBoost Seminar featuring three experts from the University of Michigan.
Our speakers will share insights from the University of Michigan Undiagnosed Disease Clinic, presenting cases solved through genome sequencing, optical genome mapping (OGM), GeneMatcher, and episignature analysis. Discover how combining innovative diagnostic tools with collaborative expertise can uncover diagnoses that standard testing may miss.
