PennChart Genomics Initiative at Five Years: From Integration to Implementation

Explore the PennChart Genomics Initiative's five-year journey from integration to implementation in this seminar by Dr. Katherine Nathanson, an internationally recognized expert in cancer genetics and genomics. Gain insights into her research on inherited cancer susceptibility and somatic genetic tumor characterization across multiple cancer types, including testicular germ cell tumors, hereditary breast and ovarian cancers, melanoma, and neuroendocrine tumors. Learn about Dr. Nathanson's contributions to genotype-phenotype studies in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer genes, molecular features of BRCA1/2-associated tumors, and genetic variations in testicular cancer susceptibility. Discover her extensive national service, numerous publications in prestigious journals, and her role as the Pearl Basser Professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine. This hour-long seminar, part of the NHGRI Center for Precision Health Research (CPHR) series, offers valuable knowledge on genomic data and electronic health record information for improving healthcare.
