APOGeE Text Book | Campaign for authors
|
The APOGeE textbook is still looking for authors. APOGeE (A Practical Online Genetics e-Education) is a free online textbook to be written by authors from the ITHACA network and other ERNs. Its topic covers biological genetics, formal genetics, a clinical and physiological approach to genetic diseases, precision medicine, and treatment of genetic diseases.
|
If you want to participate in its creation, please have a look at this provisional table of contents and fill in this online form to indicate the chapter(s) you would like to work on.
|
We encourage you to share these links around you, to professors or researchers that might be interested.

Orphanet x ERN ITHACA | New OrphID Platform
|
Orphanet has partnered with ERN-ITHACA in order to develop a platform for curated intellectual disability related genes and phenotypes. This platform (OrphaID) provides systematic and comprehensive access to and retrieval of ID-specific information within Orphanet. The list of intellectual disability-related genes is curated in partnership with ERN-ITHACA and SysID/SysNDD (www.sysid.dbmr.unibe.ch) and is linked to both internal (e.g. genes information, classification, HPO signs within Orphanet) and external resources (e.g. SysNDD, OMIM).

ERN Workshop Functional exploration of genetic variants in cardiac disease
|
In the context of EJP RD’s ERN Workshops, a face-to-face workshop entitled “Functional exploration of genetic variants in cardiac diseases” aimed at presentation of functional explorations of variants of interest identified using Drosophila, C. elegans, Zebrafish and iPSc models to understand the molecular bases of genetic diseases, in particular heart and muscle diseases, is being organised by Philippe Chevalier of the Hospices Civils de Lyon.
|
The in-person event will take place over two days on June 14th – 15th at the Hospices Civils de Lyon in Lyon, France.
