Genomics and Medicine
Starting in 2019, the American Journal of Human Genetics has published an annual feature identifying ten key advances in applying genomic information to clinical care that were reported in the previous 12 months of published literature. The Genomic Medicine Working Group has authored these reviews, based on its broader effort to identify notable accomplishments in genomic medicine on a monthly basis. From this larger set of published accomplishments, the working group has continued to select ten papers annually to be highlighted as the most significant.
