Parents across genetics, #oncology, and #prenatalcare see value in #genetictesting, but priorities differ. This highlights the need for setting-specific tools to measure personal utility. https://t.co/oNPIFf7Ymo

Systematic review of 18 studies: Alternative genetic counseling by phone, video, or written materials for high-risk breast cancer shows over 80% satisfaction & cost savings compared to in-person. Future work should focus on sustainability & implementation https://t.co/JZwRp0KYe5

Marketmakers can surpass the price whenever they want, but they can’t hide fundamentals forever. $ALICE (a single token) ≈ $44M $CHR (the Layer-1 powering it) ≈ $57M When the infrastructure is valued like one of its own apps… that’s not balance , that’s mispricing. $CHR is

Police allowed people into the Capitol on January 6. 300 people were permitted to enter through the Upper West Terrace doors. Watch the whole way as it gets better and better. I'm the guy with the US flag bandana that the officer opens the door for at 1:02. Follow me for more

Genome sequencing costs for Indigenous children with #rarediseases match those of others, but bioinformatics costs are higher due to limited database representation. Enhancing diagnostic pathways can help close the genomic gap. https://t.co/WVsRtWy4pw

#Genomesequencing (GS) is more expensive than #exomesequencing but offers similar effectiveness. To maximize impact, GS should be reserved for patient groups where it can provide the greatest benefits such as by speeding up time to diagnosis. https://t.co/0EFD05P4ce
