Abstract excerpt
Accurate classification of genomic variants is crucial to ensure correct diagnosis, genetic counseling, and clinical management of monogenic inherited disorders. Variant interpretation can be hindered in populations that are significantly underrepresented in large reference genomic databases, leading to genomic healthcare inequalities. Despite a relatively high prevalence of inherited autosomal recessive diseases...
