The goal of the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) is to discover novel genes and mechanisms contributing to heart, lung and blood disorders by pioneering the application of next-generation sequencing of the protein coding regions of the human genome across diverse, richly-phenotyped populations and to share these datasets and findings with the scientific community to extend and enrich the diagnosis, management and treatment of heart, lung and blood disorders.
Our October featured Investigator, Debbie Nickerson, along with Phil Green, Jay Shendure, are the three PIs heading the SeattleGO group in the NHLBI GO ESP. The other groups participating and collaborating are:
