14th NACG workshop

Theme: Benefits and challenges of artificial intelligence solutions in clinical genetics

The 14th NACG workshop focuses on increasing the efficiency of clinical interpretation by cutting-edge solutions, including artificial intelligence (AI)-tools.

The emerging AI-based tools hold a promise to boost variant interpretation, but they also come with challenges related to traceability and legal regulations. This 2-day workshop has a clinical and bioinformatic track. As always, the workshop will be highly interactive - aiming to foster Nordic collaboration and knowledge sharing.

On the agenda:

• Keynote by Samuli Ripatti, Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland, University of Helsinki, Finland

• National updates

• Rapid-fire session on knowledge sharing

• AI tools in variant interpretation - benchmarking and discussion

• Clinical Interpretation: cutting edge tools, data integration and best practices in variant interpretation

• AI-tools in genomics – legal challenges and opportunities

• Bioinformatics tools, pipelines, and their standardization
