Retinal cell therapy using iPS cells
Masayo Takahasi
Center for Developmental Biology, Riken, Japan
The first in man application of iPS-derived cells started in September 2014 targeted age-related macular degeneration
(AMD). AMD is caused by the senescence of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), so that we aim to develop a treatment
that replace damaged RPE with normal, young RPE made from iPS cells.
In the first clinical study, we generated iPS cells from patient’s skin fibroblast using the episomal plasmid vector. RPE
cells were differentiated from iPS cells using SFEBq. Picking up the brown cluster of cells, hiPS-RPE cells were
purified. Cells were evaluated their purity, function, and various genetic examination. Grafted cell sheet went through
various tests and tumorigenicity test using immunodeficient mice to check the safety. We judge the outcome 1 year after
the surgery. Primary endpoint is the safety and mainly the tumor formation and immune rejection will be checked.
We evaluated plasmid remnant & gene alteration using WGS, epigenetic characteristics and purity using single cell RTPCR other than our original quality control (QC). From these experiences, we think we should distinguish between basic
research and regulatory science in order to promote regenerative medicine promptly.
Since autologous transplantation is time consuming and the cost is high, it is necessary to prepare allogeneic
transplantation to establish a standard treatment. RPE cells are suitable for allogeneic transplantation because they
suppress the activation of the T-cell and it is possible that the rejection is considerably suppressed by using the iPS cell
with matched three loci of HLA.
In Japan pharmaceutical law has been changed and a new chapter for regenerative medicine was generated. This is the
first law specific for regenerative medicine in the world. It was determined in the co-operation with ministry & academia
and its success will depend on the co-operation of them. I will discuss about the future of retinal regenerative medicine.
The retina has been called the “approachable part of the brain,” owing to its relatively simple structure and its
location near the body surface, and for these reasons it serves as a useful and experimentally amenable model
of the central nervous system. Recently, it has been shown that new retinal neurons can be generated after
being damaged. This has opened up new hope that the ability to regenerate neurons and even to reconstitute
the neural network may be retained in the adult retina. We are now exploring the exciting prospect that, by
transplanting cells from outside of the retina or by regeneration from intrinsic progenitor cells, it may one day
be possible to restore lost function to damaged retinas. Our goal is to study retinal regeneration based on both
a strong foundation in basic research and solid clinical evidence.

Experience from 10.000 diagnostic exomes
Han G. Brunner
Radboud UMC, Department of Human Genetics 855, Nijmegen; Maastricht University Medical Center, Department of
Clinical Genetics, Maastricht, The Netherlands
We are using exome sequencing in clinical diagnosis for a broad range of diseases. For the year 2016, we expect
to run 8000 diagnostic exome tests. We have reviewed our experience of the first 10.000 exome tests, and find
that this has now become an integrated part of modern medical care for patients with rare diseases.
After 5 years of experience with exomes in a clinical setting, the following conclusions are drawn:
• Exomes do better than doctors most of the time
• Exomes do not generate large numbers of incidental findings
• Incidental findings can be managed by a combination of careful informed consent, targeted analysis where
possible, and informed genetic counseling
• Genomes do better than exomes, but not much at this point
• We do not understand enough of non-coding DNA to allow easy detection of variants that impact disease
• We find similar mutations for seemingly disctinct neurodevelopmental disorders suggesting broad clinical
heterogeneity, and fueling nosological debate
• De novo mutations are an important cause of severe genetic disease in non-consaguineous populations
Han Brunner pursues the scientific understanding of the connections between clinical and molecular features
of rare diseases, including applications to patient care. He has pioneered the discovery of a large number
of disease genes, and the application of cutting-edge genomic technologies (genomic microarrays, exome
sequencing, and whole genome sequencing) to discover the causes of genetic diseases. Much of this work
focuses on neurodevelopmental conditions such as intellectual disability and abnormal behavior. A pertinent
finding is that in non-consaguineous populations, the major cause for severe intellectual disability lies in
spontaneous mutations.

Genomics View of Neurological Diseases

Special Focus Sessions Concurrent Invited Sessions
Dr. Tsuji is Professor of Neurology and Director of Medical Genome Center at the University of Tokyo Hospital.
He has worked on the molecular analysis and development of treatment for neurological diseases. He has
identified causative genes for neurological diseases including dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA).
The University of Tokyo Hospital recently established Medical Genome Center with installation of next
generation sequencers. He is applying these new technologies to elucidate molecular bases of hereditary and
sporadic neurological diseases. His team has recently discovered that COQ2 gene is associated with familial as
well as sporadic multiple system atrophy (MSA).
Workshops
The availability of massively parallel genome sequencing technologies has been revolutionizing our
understanding of neurological diseases. These technologies have dramatically accelerated discovery of new genes
for a number of hereditary neurological diseases, and, furthermore, opening a new avenue to better understand
molecular bases of sporadic neurological disease. In general, hereditary neurological diseases comprise only
5-10%. It is of note that the majority of patients with neurological diseases has sporadic neurological diseases,
despite that both forms share quite similar clinical and pathological presentations. Previous studies have
shown involvement of genetic factors with large effect sizes in sporadic neurological diseases. Genome-wide
association studies based on the common disease-common variants hypothesis, however, revealed only genes
with small effect sizes. Given these experiences, a new research paradigm of common disease-multiple rare
variants hypothesis, is emerging, which requires a large-scale comprehensive genome sequencing to identify
disease-relevant rare variants. Based on this research paradigm, we have identified GBA and COQ2 as strong
genetic risk factors for Parkinson disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), respectively. Association
of the GBA variants with PD has been observed irrespective of ethnic backgrounds, while association of
COQ2 variants has been demonstrated mainly in MSA patients in East Asia including Japanese and Chinese
populations. COQ2 codes for an enzyme essential for coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) biosynthesis, raising a possibility
that supplementation of CoQ10 may be efficacious for treatment of MSA. Currently a phase I clinical trial of
CoQ10 is being conducted. Thus, high-throughput genome sequencing technologies will enable us to explore
molecular bases of neurological diseases with an unprecedentedly robust power and we expect a new era of datacentric clinical practice.

Next generation sequencers (NGSs) make a huge impact on human genetics researches. After the initial success of
identifying culprit mutations for Miller syndrome and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease in 2010, whole exome sequencing
(WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS) have become standard tools for investigation of genetic diseases in which
mutant genes are known or unknown. Now even clinical WES and WGS are available with affordable prices. In this
concurrent session, four speakers are invited from Asia, Middle East, North America and Europe to introduce you current
status of gene identification projects for human genetic diseases in the world.

"Epigenetic Inheritance and Reprogramming in Biology and Disease"
April 6 (Wed.)
Program
In this session, we discuss our latest knowledge regarding the regulation of the transcriptome and epigenome of human
tissues and cells, with a special reference to epigenetic reprogramming, trans-generational inheritance, and epigeneticsrelated congenital disease. Fuchou Tang talks about the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscape of human germ
cells and pre-implantation embryos, providing insights into the critical features of the methylome of these tissues, as
well as its functional relationship with the regulation of gene expression and the repression of transposable elements.
Hiroyuki Sasaki presents data showing that human placenta retains some of the asymmetry of the methylome between
the male and female gametes, which results in placenta-specific imprinted genes unique to humans. Masayo Kagami’s
work focuses on imprinting-related disorders, especially those involving the imprinted genes on human chromosome 14,
revealing the mechanisms regulating the gene cluster and the genotype-phenotype relationship. Lastly, Anne FergusonSmith talks about the effects of in utero undernourishment on the adult sperm methylome, which can be associated with
metabolic disease in offspring. We discuss the roles of epigenetic inheritance and reprogramming in human biology and
disease.

Responses to drugs vary widely. Lack of efficacy of a drug can lead to inadequate control of disease and is a waste of
resources. Conversely, adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are frequent and often unpredictable. Many genetic polymorphisms
have been identified in genes that affect efficacy or risk of ADRs for various drugs. In USA, information on about 125
germline genomic biomarkers is available in US FDA-approved drug labels. In particular, US FDA strongly recommends
genotyping for polymorphisms in drug-metabolizing enzymes and HLA alleles prior to drug administration for several
drugs, such as eliglustat, nilotinib, pimozide, tetrabenazine, carbamazepine and lapatinib. One of the issues facing all of
us is implementation of an evidenced–based clinical practice using the genomic biomarkers. In order to establish PGxbased individualization of drug therapy, the advantages of genomic biomarkers need to be demonstrated with respect to
clinical validity, clinical utility and pharmacoeconomics. In this session, lectures will be delivered by researchers in Asia,
Europe and Africa working on genomic biomarkers, from discovery to application to improve drug therapy.

The human genome contains about 20,000 protein-coding genes, similar in number and functional repertoire to those in
other animals, including nematodes. By contrast, the extent of non-coding DNA increases with increasing developmental
complexity, reaching 98.5% in humans. The vast majority of these sequences are differentially transcribed during
development to produce large numbers of short and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that are antisense, intergenic or
intronic to protein-coding loci. Unlike miRNAs, whose role in translational regulation is well established, the functions of
lncRNAs, which range from a few hundred bases to over 100 kb in length, are poorly understood. Some lncRNAs are
components of enigmatic subnuclear domains in mammals, but most are highly species- and cell-specific, and appear
to be involved in chromosomal organization and guidance of epigenetic processes to control transcription and splicing,
thereby acting as regulatory switches for development and organogenesis. Moreover, recent advances have shown
that abundant editing and many chemical modifications occur in RNA, termed the epi-transcriptome, which may play
important roles in the dynamic modulation of the RNA structure-function relationships, and hence epigenetic plasticity,
especially in the brain.
This session will present the latest discoveries in the field of lncRNAs and RNA modifications, with important implications
for future studies in human genetics, developmental biology and neuroscience.

"GA4GH, IRDiRC, and Matchmaker Exchange"
Jointly Sponsored by Japan Agency for Medical Research and Development
The International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) was established in 2011 to promote international
collaboration and encourage the investment of more public and private research funds into the area of rare diseases.
IRDiRC teams up researchers and organizations investing in rare diseases research to achieve two main objectives by
the year 2020: to deliver 200 new therapies for rare diseases and means to diagnose most rare diseases. RDiRC now
encompasses 42 members from all over the world, who are funding bodies/organizations contributing towards IRDiRC
objectives, as well as invited patient advocacy group (EURORDIS, NORD, and the Genetic Alliance). Speakers in this
session will highlight recent developments in rare disease therapeutic development, and innovative approaches to patient
engagement. The session will also present novel approaches to the sharing of genomic data derived from patients, which
is essential to disease gene discovery and thus to diagnosing patients with diseases whose aetiology is not now known.
This initiative, Matchmaker Exchange has been developed jointly by IRDiRC and GA4GH.
The Matchmaker Exchange project was launched in October 2013 to address the challenge finding the genetic
causes for patients with rare disease. Finding just a single additional case with a deleterious variant in the same gene
and overlapping phenotype may provide sufficient evidence to identify the causative gene, but today, case data sits
in isolated databases. This involves a large and growing number of teams and projects working towards a federated
platform (Exchange) to facilitate the matching of cases with similar phenotypic and genotypic profiles (matchmaking)
through standardized application programming interfaces (APIs) and procedural conventions.
The Global Alliance for Genomics and Health was formed to help accelerate the potential of genomic medicine to
advance human health. It brings together over 385 leading institutions working in healthcare, research, disease advocacy,
life science, and information technology. The partners in the Global Alliance are working together to create a common
framework of harmonized approaches to enable the responsible, voluntary, and secure sharing of genomic and clinical
data. Engaging collaboratively with its stakeholders, the Global Alliance works to establish, broadly disseminate, and
advocate for the use of interoperable technical standards for managing and sharing genomic and clinical data.

"Genetics and Genomics in Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases"
April 6 (Wed.)
Program
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 100 susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D),
but most of them are still largely common loci across different ethnicities. In order to identify ethnicity-specific novel
susceptibility loci for T2D, it is important to employ much more SNPs using imputation with individuals from the 1000
Genomes Project as reference populations. It is also important to carry out
genome and exome sequencing in large cohorts, which enables characterization of the role of rare variation in complex
diseases. To assess whether a single variant at a locus contributes to disease risk, the statistical analysis framework is
relatively straightforward: compare the frequencies of alleles or genotypes at the site in relation to phenotype. To assess
whether multiple variants in the same gene contribute to disease, a much larger array of potential genetic models must be
considered, which has led to the development of numerous statistical methods for testing aggregate groups of variants
for association with disease. It is estimated that the human genome contains hundreds of thousands of enhancers, so
understanding these gene-regulatory elements is a crucial goal. About 85% of human DNA under evolutionary constraint
corresponds to non-protein-coding sequences, a sizeable fraction of which constitutes cis-regulatory elements. It is
not surprising, thus, that genetic variation within these regulatory sequences has the potential of resulting in phenotypic
variation and underlies the aetiology of human diseases. Genetic variation in distant enhancers has been linked to several
human Mendelian disorders. Importantly, a number of regulatory variants in enhancers emerging from GWAS hits have
been functionally characterized, and several insights have come out of these studies. Finaly, systematic approaches
for integrating the findings of genetic, biological and pharmacological studies could be useful for developing new T2D
treatments. In this session, most recent data on these issues will be presented.

"Genetics of Deafness"
Moderators:Shin-ichi Usami
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Shinshu University School of Medicine, Japan
Guy Van Camp
Department of Medical Genetics, University of Antwerp, Belgium
Deafness is a disorder with high genetic heterogeneity; however, over the past two decades a good deal of progress has
been made in identifying many different genes responsible for similar phenotypes. The identification of deafness-causing
genes has been the most influential factor in the recent extensive advances in our knowledge of the biology of hearing. In
terms of clinical applications, the most remarkable aspect of these advances is that ENT clinicians can now make highly
accurate molecular diagnoses through the use of genetic testing, enabling a clearer understanding of the mechanisms
involved, more appropriate and precise treatment selection and greatly improved genetic counseling.
Genetic testing has accordingly become indispensable to the provision of personalized therapeutic intervention
for deafness patients. To date, approximately one hundred genes are estimated to cause non-syndromic hearing
impairment, although a number of these may result in similar phenotypes that entail no symptoms other than hearing
loss. The question, therefore, arises as to how can we reach a clear understanding of the responsible gene in individual
patients. Conventional one-by-one gene screening does not afford an efficient approach because it is too time- and
cost- consuming.
The problem that remains is the large number of patients with deafness of unknown etiology. Recent high-throughput,
next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have revolutionized genome research as they can analyze a huge
amount of sequence data in a short time. The advent of NGS technologies has brought deafness research into a new
era. Since it is extremely efficient and cost-effective, comprehensive genetic analysis using NGS platforms has opened
the door to clinical applications, and diagnostic platforms using NGS technologies have been successful in identifying
rare causative mutations in relatively uncommon deafness genes.
In this session, four experts will present their most recent data on the genetics of deafness.

Program
Hiroshi Tanaka
Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Japan
The integration of genomic information into electronic health records (EHRs) shows promise to advance the field of
precision medicine. We will present an overview of the current state of adoption of EHRs from select countries, identify
common barriers to successful integration, and describe promising early successes in both the United States (US) and
Japan.
Adoption rates of EHRs have steadily increased, often with significant government support. Despite these positive trends,
significant barriers to the meaningful use of EHRs include, poor usability, lack of data standardization and impaired
interoperability. These same issues impede progress in incorporating genomic information into EHRs. Compounding
these concerns are the ethical and legal implications of integration of genetic information into routine clinical care
including fear of discrimination and privacy violations, patient/provider education on how to utilize genomic information
and equal access to EHRs. We will highlight how data from EHRs have been used successfully to enable genomic
studies and present promising new directions.
As case examples, we will highlight four current initiatives. The Integrated Clinical Omics Database (iCOD), the Tohoku
Medical Megabank (TMM) project, the Electronic Medical Records and Genomics network (eMERGE) and the Action
Collaborative on Developing Guiding Principles for Integrating Genomic Information into the EHR Ecosystem (DIGITizE).

The proposed program will convene experts from the International Genetics Education Network (IGEN) in the needs
assessment, development and evaluation of genetics education for health professionals. The speakers will describe the
development of various educational programs and different approaches to assessing outcomes of interest in the targeted
populations.
The appropriate integration of genomics into routine practice has the potential to significantly impact patient care,
however, substantial barriers must be overcome. Internationally, health professionals, particularly primary care providers,
have acknowledged a gap in genetics knowledge and skills. A noted lack of confidence about their own genetics
knowledge has prevented physicians from having comprehensive discussions about it with their patients. Further,
physicians may order genetic testing that is inappropriate for the clinical situation and that they do not correctly interpret,
potentially leading to wasted healthcare resources and less than optimal patient outcomes. Physicians also have reported
a lack of understanding about when and how to make referrals for genetic counseling. Physicians have endorsed the
need for more training in areas such as genetic risk assessment, test ordering and interpretation, and counseling and
some groups have developed continuing education programs designed to address these topics.

"Cardiac Genetics"
Over recent years, there has been a significant increase in referrals to cardiac genetics clinics with an increase in the
availability of genetic testing. The ready availability of large-scale sequencing has led to improved definition of the
molecular cause of these conditions and the development of precision medicine. This should lead to improved diagnosis
and in turn improved therapeutics for these conditions.
In the interim, there continue to be challenges in understanding the molecular basis of these conditions and implementing
this technology into clinical practice in individuals and families.
This session will provide an overview of some of these current opportunities and challenges.

Genodermatoses comprise an enormous spectrum of genetically caused diseases. Human skin – a large organ
protecting our body from various types of external stress - with its immune system, nerves, vessels and appendages, like
nails, hair, sweat glands etc., can be affected by mutations of any gene that is expressed in parts of the multifunctional
organ. Genodermatoses not only refer to monogenetic diseases and are rather seen as Mendelian as more than one
gene might be affected. A current internet search for “skin” in the OMIM database (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/omim/) shows
a number of 3472 entries.
This workshop will provide an overview on major types of genodermatoses. It refers to clinical geneticists, dermatologists
and molecular biologists in order to provide an update on the current clinico-genetic approach for diagnosis. Through
four talks and following interactive discussions international experts will present the large group of disorders of
cornification, skin fragility, inflammatory and immune mediated skin diseases as well as vascular skin diseases. Their
symptoms concern the skin or other organ systems. Various forms of syndromic or non-syndromic diseases will be
discussed. As such speakers will focus on major disease types providing novel genetic insights into the large field of
genodermatology.

"Genetics of Eye Diseases"
Rando Allikmets
Ophthalmology, Columbia University; Pathology & Cell Biology, Columbia University, New York, USA
It is known that approximately 80% of information our body receives comes as visual information. The visual system
include the anterior part of the eye (cornea, lens and vitreous body) and the posterior part of the eye (retina and optic
nerves). These components focus the incoming light to the retina, which transduces the light signal into neural signals
and passes through the optic nerves to central structures for more elaborate processing, integrating their information
with other sensory information. Any disease that interferes with the function of these components will cause loss of
vision and blindness, and each part of the visual system has specific susceptibilities to genetic background and age.
Genetic factor plays critical role for the onset of various eye diseases and for this reason, genetic research has been
active in this field. Number of leading genetics research such as the world first successful GWAS study on age-related
macular degeneration has been previously demonstrated. Over 250 genes has been associated with eye diseases and
approximately 12,000 gene mutations responsible for retinal diseases alone. In this session, four speakers will focus on
critical eye diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa, myopia, age-related macular degeneration and other hereditary retinal
diseases and introduce the cutting edge genetics analysis and diagnostics. Dr. Allikmets will speak about his recent work
on retinitis pigmentosa, one of the major inherited retinal disease. Dr. Zhang will present his recent work on myopia, a
common eye problem worldwide. Dr. Baird will speak about age-related macular degeneration, the major eye disease for
elderly worldwide. Dr. Iwata will describe the Japan consortium for hereditary retinal diseases.

"Genetics of Skeletal Diseases"
Moderator: Shiro Ikegawa
Laboratory for Bone and Joint Diseases, RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Science, Japan
This session focuses on genetic studies on skeletal diseases (both monogenic and polygenic diseases) and invites active
researchers and doctors (all speakers have both MD. and PhD.) from various fields of medical science, including medical
genetics, orthopedics, regenerative medicine, and developmental biology. It is quite co-incidental that all speakers are
from East Asia (or rather it shows the high level of the region).
Prof. Zhang has been working on gene hunting of monogenic diseases. He talks on identification of disease genes for
monogenic skeletal diseases.
Prof. Jiang is a surgeon scientist working on bone and joint diseases from their etiology to treatment. He talks on the
association studies of polygenic bone and joint diseases (osteoarthritis, acetabular dysplasia, etc.).
Prof. Kitoh is also a surgeon scientist and has been working on skeletal dysplasia (monogenic disease of skeleton). He
talks on treatment strategies for short stature in skeletal dysplasias aiming for clinical application.
Prof. Tsumaki is working on the application of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS) technologies to skeletal biology. He talks
on the use of iPS chondrocytes in the disease modeling of skeletal dysplasia, including his recent epoch-making study
on achondroplasia.

Kidney is composed of glomeruli, tubules, vessels, nerves and interstitial tissue. Various types of cells mutated in genetic
diseases behave abnormally and disrupt normal renal structure and function. There are many renal genetic diseases
caused by either single-gene defect or polygenic defects. Systemic genetic disorders influence kidneys as well. Based on
target genes affected and symptoms, renal genetic diseases are grouped to glomerular disease, renal cystic ciliopathies,
renal tubular disorders, and nephrolithiasis and congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract.
This workshop will start with an overview in renal genetic diseases, followed by presentation of topics in common three
diseases, Alport syndrome, Fabry nephropathy, and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. These diseases
are found frequently in clinical nephrology all over the world and considered at high risk for progression to renal failure.
Recently discoveries of pathophysiology and molecular biology have brought new therapies to slow the course of the
diseases. In the workshop, international experts provide diagnosis, genetics, pathophysiology, current strategies of
therapy and future direction of curing renal genetic diseases.

"UCSC Genome Browser - A platform for variant analysis"
Moderator: Robert Kuhn
Center for Biomolecular Science & Engineering, University of California Santa Cruz, USA
The UCSC Genome Browser is widely used as a platform for visualizing genomic data of all sorts. In both the clinic and
the laboratory, the power of the Browser lies in the ability to combine user data (such as uploaded copy-number variants
or SNPs) with data resident on the Browser. Browser-resident data reflect the contributions from many sources including
both benign and pathogenic variants, regulatory regions, epigenomic data and comparative genomics. These resources,
combined all in one location, make the Browser and its tools a powerful platform for inquiry-driven data analysis.
By uploading data as Custom Tracks users may intersect their SNPs with dbSnp, HGMD and UniProt, and their CNVs
with large variant data from DECIPHER, OMIM and other resources. Data profiles can be created and saved for future
reference or for sharing with colleagues using the Saved Sessions utility.
The Variant Annotation Intergrator, a relatively new tool, takes input of SNPs and small indels and facilitates production
of reports of variants and their biochemical consequences such as missense, splice-junction, etc, as well as SIFT and
PolyPhen score, known regulatory sites and conservation score. The Table Browser allows export of lists of genes from
large CNVs. Finally, the Genome Browser-in-a-Box is a downloadable version of the Browser which can be used inside a
firewall for proprietary or sensitive data that cannot be uploaded to UCSC.

"Human Genetics in the Global Health Service: Genetics and Genomics
in Developing Countries"
In order to present genetic information of countries from the developing world, we started discussions in international
meetings, International Federation of Human Genetics Executive and Scientific Committee; Sub-Committee of
Developing Countries; UNESCO; WHO; Latin American Network of Human Genetics (RELAGH); The Human Variome
Project (HVP); Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) among others, and proposed discussions about this
matter.
Social, economic, religious, educational and legal aspects from different countries in our region and their importance on
the future development of Genetic Services have been considered. A research survey among geneticist from Developing
Countries was prepared and the results will be discussed in International Fora.
Some of our groups has led to the discovery of many potential genetic and genomic markers of disease susceptibility,
diagnosis, prognosis and follow up. Validation and integration of new molecular tools, including the new generation of
nucleic acid analysis methods, into clinical practice pose many significant challenges at several levels of health care
systems which need to be addressed.
Possible strategies and future actions for the improvement of the quality of genetic services will be discussed. Several
International initiatives currently aiming to consolidate technologies for genetic testing, aligned with the burden of disease
in these environments will be discussed.
It is hoped that our research work will provide a means to gather information before hand and a forum for discussion
concerning the practice of medical genetics and the importance of genetic education and the planning of effective
medical genetics programs in Global Health Services, for prevention of various genetic conditions in order to reduce their
burden on the health system.
The problems, needs and challenges will be discussed in this workshop.

"Current Issues of Medical Genetics in Asia"
Moderators:Poh-San Lai
National University of Singapore, Singapore
Jin-Sung Lee
Department of Clinical Genetics, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Korea
Medical genetics has indisputably advanced our understanding of many disorders and identified many new genes and
genetic conditions. In many developed countries, genomic medicine is providing clinicians with new tools and knowledge
to diagnose, treat and manage patients based on individual genetic profiles. In Asia, improvements in healthcare over
the decades have led to lower infant mortality rates and higher life expectancies. However, despite being home to more
than half of the world’s population and with six of the 10 largest nations in the Asia Pacific region, there are disparities
among different countries in Asia with regards to issues such equity and access to molecular genetic testing; scope of
newborn and population screening programs; adequacy of genetic services coverage under national healthcare systems;
availability of sufficient trained clinical geneticists and genetic counselors; extent of knowledge and understanding in new
genetic testing technologies like array CGH, non-invasive prenatal screening, next-gen sequencing, etc. among primary
care providers and specialists; regulatory control of genetic testing and the role of direct-to-consumer companies;
challenges in genomic medicine such as handling of incidental findings from NGS testing, barriers for clinical trials for
genetic disorders, etc.
As precision medicine is poised to shift the way healthcare is managed and how patients are diagnosed and treated all
over the world, this workshop aims to promote dialogue in this area to better understand the issues faced and to explore
novel approaches to drive the practice of medical genetics in Asia. The audience will be invited to submit questions
which will be addressed by members of the Panel.

Japan
Poh-San Lai
National University of Singapore, Singapore
The HUGO Pan-Asian Population Genomics Initiative (HUGO-PAPGI) is a collaborative international effort to
systematically collect, analyse and understand the genetic diversity of the Asian populations. The main objective of this
consortium is to unravel patterns in genomic diversity modulating phenotypic traits and thus contribute to the baseline
data for understanding genomic diversity and healthcare interventions in this area. Additionally, it also aims to develop
a framework for exchange and sharing of resources, expertise and training between countries. HUGO-PAPGI had its
roots from the HUGO-HUGO Pan-Asian SNP consortium which had characterized genome-wide SNPs across 73 Asian
population groups in order to map human genetic diversity in Asia (Science, 11 Dec 2009:ol. 326, Issue 5959, pp.
1541-1545, DOI: 10.1126/science.1177074). This workshop highlights work from PAPGI members in unraveling the
geographic structure of genetic variation across the continents and in searching for disease-associated genes.
