Virtual Cytogenetic Workshop Series

Workshop #1: Introduction to Optical Genome Mapping

Thursday, October 17, 2024
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET

Victoria Stinnett, Melanie Klausner, Jen Ghabrial, Ying Zou, John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD

This workshop will be an introduction of Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) to detect structural variants and copy number variants in clinical diagnostic laboratories. We will describe the OGM method in details (step-by-step), technical limitations and advantages, analysis pipelines (de novo and rare variants in terms of their sensitivities and specificities associated with structural variants and copy number variants), and its potential clinical utilities in patients with constitutional diseases and cancers.

Workshop #2: Optical Genome Mapping in Plasma Cell Neoplasms

Thursday, October 24, 2024
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET

Melanie Klausner, Victoria Stinnett, Jen Ghabrial, Ying Zou, John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD

This workshop will describe Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) in patients with plasma cell neoplasms. We will describe different approaches to generate OGM data on CD138 enriched plasma cells, demonstrate how to analyze structural variants and copy number variants using genome-wide approach for hypo and hyperdiploidy and targeted approach for specific biomarkers related to plasma cell neoplasms, as well as interpret and report OGM results at a clinical setting.

Workshop #3: Optical Genome Mapping in Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors

Thursday, November 7, 2024
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET

Jen Ghabrial, Victoria Stinnett, Melanie Klausner, Ying Zou, John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD

This workshop will describe Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) in patients with bone and soft tissue tumors. We will describe technical approaches to generate OGM data on fresh or frozen bone and soft tissue tumor specimen, demonstrate how to analyze structural variants and copy number variants using genome-wide approach and targeted approach for specific biomarkers related to bone and soft tissue tumors, as well as interpret and report OGM results for bone and soft tissue tumors at a clinical setting.
