Welcome to the RMI Spotlight Joe Dahl 🤩 This series features our current and former students involved with the Research Mentoring Internship (RMI) Program. We asked Joe what he is up to now. Check out the link here for the full interview: https://lnkd.in/gKY7xHRu ⭐ What are you doing now? How did what you learned in RMI help you get where you are? I currently manage the advanced R&D program for a genomics biotech. Before that I was a post-doctoral fellow at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. The most important thing I took away from RMI was networking and accumulating mentors, who become peers and allies. As well as becoming a mentor and peer to others.

Unlocking Life’s Code
About us
Unlocking the world’s genomic information to drive targeted treatment of diseases. We provide the organizing framework, focus, and leadership for the next great leap in the science of genomics and its implications for human health to carry out our goals: Accelerate the power of the global research community to solve today’s intractable health problems. Lead the national and international effort to break down institutional silos where genomic information is now isolated. Enable the secure sharing and analysis of genomic data on a global open-source federated network. Tackle head on the most fundamental societal questions evoked by the advent of a universal genomics technology. As always, all that we learn and create we will openly share with the world. We are a public institution dedicated to creating a healthier world and a healthier society.

Genetic testing helps people assess their breast cancer risk, but some variants have unknown clinical significance.“By pre-computing these new evidence code assignments, we will ultimately help many labs to curate the BRCA variants and resolve variants of uncertainty,” says Melissa Cline, a researcher for the University of California, Santa Cruz Genomics Institute and program manager for the BRCA Exchange. Her new publication showcases evidence-based recommendations for gene-specific ACMG/AMP variant classification. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gTuDrRYF
