Pretty excited about giving Talos a try in the NHS @rdexeter.bsky.social‬. We should definitely be doing regular reanalysis of existing genome-wide sequencing data, just need the right tools!
@zornitza.bsky.social updating on Talos automated reanalysis pipeline #ESHG2025

>250 new diagnosis from 4744 unsolved cases. That’s 5% new extra for <1 variant per case, it’s #scaleable!

Pre-print now out: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Talos is #portable #opensource: github.com/populationge...

Early results from the Generation Study: genomic NBS in 100,000 newborns

- 10,000 recruited
- 4% => scientist review
- 27 => diagnosed
- 6 confirmed clinically
- 1 refuted was AR in cis
- TAT 3-4 weeks
