Seminar Title: Genetic Equity: Breaking Barriers for Children with Rare Diseases at the Texas-Mexico Border June 27, 2024 - Identifying genetic diagnoses in children is crucial for improving health outcomes, yet genomic disparities exist for individuals who are non-White and/or Hispanic or those with lower socioeconomic status. The Rio Grande Valley (RGV) along the Texas-Mexico border lacks consistent access to a full-time genetics provider. Over 94% of the RGV population identifies as Hispanic/Latino, and between 30-40% of children in the four counties live in poverty. Many families in this region travel between 150-350 miles to access genomic services. Project GIVE (Genetic Inclusion by Virtual Evaluation) is an NIH-funded research study at Baylor College of Medicine that leverages Consultagene, a cutting-edge telehealth platform, to provide timely virtual genetic evaluation and whole genome sequencing (WGS) to children in the RGV with suspected genetic diseases. The NHGRI Center for Precision Health Research (CPHR) sponsors a monthly series of talks by intramural and special guest speakers on research relevant to the use of genomic data and large-scale electronic health record information to improve health. Speakers are selected by CPHR faculty and cover research topics of interest to a wide audience.
