Rare diseases affect around 6% of the population and are mostly caused by rare genetic changes. However, despite enormous investment in genomics, whole genome sequencing does not yield a diagnosis for the majority of patients.

We will develop a suite of Primary Annotated Resources to Advance Discovery In Genomic Medicine (PARADIGM), by integrating novel high-resolution datasets into existing tools and databases that are widely used by the genomic medicine community.

PARADIGM is a Wellcome Discovery funded award which will couple functional genomics data with clinical and bioinformatics expertise to empower diagnosis and discovery in genomic medicine.
