Doctoral Research Faculty – Genomic Medicine Center Children's Mercy Hospital (MO)Doctoral Research Faculty – Genomic Medicine CenterKansas City, MOGA4K has produced more than 1,000 genomes through a state-of-the-art technique called HiFi sequencing that allows them to see more of the human genome than other techniques; is the first to use 5-base sequencing in their genomic analyses, accelerating answers for kids with rare diseases through the sequencing of the full genome; and is the first to apply “human assembly” to their rare disease genomics work, building hundreds of genomes from scratch to capture the DNA that is missed by the human genome developed in 2014. The team has surpassed 1,000 rare diagnoses through their groundbreaking work—far out-pacing other rare disease research programs—and continue to conduct cutting-edge science that has led to a number of “firsts” in the field of genomics research.
