Purpose: Myopia (nearsightedness) is a condition in which a refractive error (RE) affects vision. Although common variants explain part of the genetic predisposition (18%), most of the estimated 70% heritability is missing. Here, we investigate the c

For neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), a molecular diagnosis is key for management, predicting outcome, and counseling. Often, routine DNA-based tests fail to establish a genetic diagnosis in NDDs. Transcriptome analysis (RNA sequencing [RNA-seq])

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is caused by inactivating mutations in NF1. Due to the size, complexity, and high mutation rate at the NF1 locus, the identification of causative variants can be challenging. To obtain a molecular diagnosis in 15 indivi
