WHO: Francisco M. De La Vega, DSc, Fabric Genomics' Senior Vice President of Genomics, is a geneticist and computational biologist with interests in clinical and population genetics. He also serves as Adjunct Professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine's Department of Biomedical Data Science. Dr. de la Vega has participated in several breakthrough international projects such as the 1000 Genomes Project and the International Cancer Genome Consortium. He has co-authored more than 100 scientific publications, including papers in top journals such as Nature, Nature Genetics, Science and Genome Research, receiving more than 20,000 citations.
 
INFO: As genomic medicine becomes more critical to delivering precision diagnoses and targeted therapies, there is a need for artificial intelligence approaches that will help clinicians cope with the rapidly increasing volumes of genomic data. This session will focus on how AI can be integrated within clinical genome interpretation, significantly increasing scale while reducing costs and avoiding "black-box" approaches.
