Whole Genome Sequencing Drop In Session:

Tuesday 11^th October, 14:30-15:30

Are you a clinician looking to find out more about Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)? Then this drop-in session is for you!

During the session you will find out more information on this new testing, how it can be used for your patients and have the opportunity to ask questions of the South East GLH Rare Disease Medical Lead Felix Chua.

This session is open to clinicians from all specialties across the South East region of South London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex.

If you would like to attend, please email gst-tr.southeastglh@nhs.net and we can get the MS Teams link sent to you.

This is the first in a series of drop-in sessions covering WGS so if you cannot attend this session, please keep an eye out for other sessions in the future. Alternatively, if you are unable to attend one of these sessions please do get in touch using the above email and we can arrange a date that is suitable to you. We can also arrange a session that is tailored specifically to your specialty or queries.
