Abstract
As traditional barriers to the use of genome sequencing decrease, it is likely that the application of this testing will exceed the available capacity of geneticists and genetic counselors to disclose results. Various methods for extending the capacity of genetics providers have been explored, including training of non-genetics providers in genomic results disclosures. In SouthSeq, part of the Clinical Sequencing Evidence-Generating Research Consortium, genome sequencing is used as a first-line diagnostic tool for critically-ill infants with suspected genetic disorders; results are returned by either genetic counselors or trained non-genetics providers.
