The UNC Rare Disease Network is hosting an upcoming, virtual event for OBGYNs:
“Genetic Testing in OBGYN: Updates and Practice Guidelines”
This virtual, interactive event is part one of a three-part series which focuses on genetic testing in OBGYN such as NIPT (Non-invasive prenatal testing), carrier screening, and WES/WGS (Whole-Exome Sequencing/Whole-Genome Sequencing) and how it can relate to patients with a rare disease. The presentation is geared towards OBGYNs and will discuss genetic basics, how to navigate clinical scenarios, knowing which test to order, and tips for disclosing abnormal results. A Q&A session will follow the presentation. Two additional events in this series will occur in May and June – additional information on these events will be provided soon.
