Herausforderungen und Chancen f\u00fcr die genetische Diagnose von Entwicklungsst\u00f6rungen in Afrika<br>Der genetische Beitrag zur Entwicklungsst\u00f6rung (DD) in Afrika ist bislang kaum erforscht, und DDD-Africa hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, dem durch die Schaffung eines Rahmens f\u00fcr Forschung und evidenzbasierte Gesundheitsreformen entgegenzuwirken. Unser langfristiges Ziel f\u00fcr das Projekt ist die Entwicklung eines pragmatischen und wirksamen Ansatzes f\u00fcr die nachhaltige Integration der Gesamt-Exom-Sequenzierung in die DD-Diagnostik, um einen pr\u00e4zisen Ansatz im Bereich der \u00f6ffentlichen Gesundheit f\u00fcr Afrika zu erm\u00f6glichen.
