From bench to bedside – how can we maximise the value of genomic reports?

In this presentation aimed at Cancer MDTs, Dr Nirupa Murugaesu provides an overview of the genomic report structure and explains how these are interpreted.

Dr Murugaesu is a Consultant Medical Oncologist at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Cancer Lead for Genomics, South East GLH.

This was recorded in September 2022 as part of the Bayer sponsored educational event Everything you want to know about genomics but are afraid to ask, which explored the benefits and challenges of mainstreaming genomic profiling and precision oncology pathways in the management of patients with cancer.
