Memories from the session in September on Converging Genetics - What , Why and When of #WholeGenomeSequencing at Galle Medical College organised by Galle Medical Association. Thanks Dr. Lahiru Prabodha for the invitation and the memorable event.

Preparedness is not about predicting the future, but being ready for it in every form.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of taking a workshop on Clinical Genomics and Genetic Variant Interpretation, empowering clinicians and residents with the latest genomics insights. It is indeed exciting times for genomics in healthcare #GenomicsInMedicine #midtermPHOCON2025

A Healthier Start: Making A Case for Genomic Newborn Screening in India sciencechronicle.in/2025/07/14/a...

Chemotherapy is a double edged sword and while effective against a number of cancers, and often the first line of therapy in many, can cause significant genetic mutations in healthy cells, and sometimes increased risk of new cancers over a long time. 1/2

Whole-genome sequencing of 2,762 Indians has unravelled the layers of ancestry, high intermixing with Neanderthals and Denisovans. This along with high endogamy in India could potentially result in harmful mutations in some groups. share.google/EzZEcHF47IdT...

💔 New research from the All of Us Program reveals that 1.2% of South Asians carry key cardiomyopathy gene variants and this is almost 50% more than the frequency in people with European or African ancestry and more than double the frequency in people with East Asian ancestry

🔴 hMPV outbreak in China. Should we be worried? A short 🧵 explaining

🔴 Evolution - one step at a time . Genetic sequences of #H5N1 #birdflu viruses collected from a person in Louisiana who became severely ill show signs of development of several mutations thought to affect the virus’ ability to attach to cells in the upper airways of humans.

Did you know ? Genomic testing in a large cohort of patients with Cerebral Palsy indicate that actionable genetic findings occurred in 8% of individuals and pathogenic variants in 27%. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

🔴 Is #H5N1 inching towards human spread ? Genome sequencing identified the PB2-E627K mutation in the British Columbia teenager, which is linked to faster replication in human cells and greater severity of illness, and likely emerged during the infection. epaper.thehindu.com/ccidist-ws/t...
