Brief description The human genome project sparked enormous improvements in our ability to sequence DNA. “Next Generation” DNA sequencing can potentially sequence an individual’s entire genome in a week and has the ability to transform the diagnosis of inherited diseases but is as yet unproven in a medical genetics context. We will develop and validate the use of Next Generation sequencing to enable the rapid sequencing of over 1000 genes in which mutations cause inherited metabolic diseases.
