In this episode of Paul Talks Science, I speak with Prof. Christian Gilissen, Professor in Genome Bioinformatics and Head of Bioinformatics at Radboud University Medical Center, about the game-changing potential of long-read sequencing in rare disease diagnosis.
We dive into:
π¬ How long-read sequencing works and why it matters
𧬠Its advantages over traditional short-read sequencing
π‘ The impact on patient diagnostics and clinical care
π° The challenges of cost and accessibility
βοΈ Ethical and regulatory considerations
Prof. Gilissen shares insights from his latest research and explains why long-read sequencing could soon become the new standard in genomic medicine.
π§ Tune in to explore the future of rare disease diagnosis and how cutting-edge science is bringing hope to millions.
