The New Mastermind Search Interface – Now with Phenotypes
Fusion genes have long been known to play an important role in the development of cancer. Identifying and documenting each newly discovered fusion is crucial in both patient diagnosis and the development of Precision Medicine.
Genomenon Research Report: Fusion Genes of Clinical Significance in 2019
Fusion genes have long been known to play an important role in the development of cancer. Identifying and documenting each newly discovered fusion is crucial in both patient diagnosis and the development of Precision Medicine. The Genomenon team used the Mastermind Genomic Search Engine to compile a comprehensive knowledgebase of literature regarding gene fusions in …
5 Key Considerations when Selecting a Variant Database
With millions of human genetic variants cited in over 30 million articles, comprehensively searching the medical research for a variant can be like finding a needle in a haystack. This is especially important when a single paper can mean the difference between a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) and a pathogenic variant.
