2 whole exome sequencing One Test More Answers Developed jointly by the Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC), the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics and the Medical Genetics Laboratories of the Baylor College of Medicine, the Whole Genome Sequencing Laboratory (WGL) applies the power of next generation sequencing technology to clinical genetics in a CLIA high complexity testing laboratory with clinical interpretation of the sequence information. Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) is poised to change the current paradigm of genetic testing for Mendelian disorders, pharmacogenetic traits, and potentially complex traits. Rather than limiting testing to a single gene or panel of genes and incurring diagnostic delays and escalating costs, the Whole Exome Sequencing test will sequence nucleotide by nucleotide, the human exome to the depth of coverage required to achieve a consensus sequence with high accuracy. Point mutations, small insertions and deletions of the exome are routinely detected by this methodology. The team curating the Whole Exome Sequencing test focuses the report on on known or predicted deleterious mutations in genes associated with patient s clinical problems; however, significant potentially medically actionable findings in other genes of interest as well as the option for reporting autosomal recessive carrier status are included in the focused whole exome report.

6 AMERICAN SOCIETY OF HUMAN GENETICS DISCOVER EDUCATE ADVOCATE The American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG), founded in 1948, is the primary professional membership organization for human genetics specialists worldwide. ASHG serves research scientists, health professionals, and the public by providing forums to: Share research results at Annual Meetings and in The American Journal of Human Genetics; Advance genetic research by advocating for research support; Enhance genetics education by preparing future professionals and informing the public; and Promote genetic services and support responsible social and scientific policies. ASHG s nearly 8,000 members include researchers, academicians, clinicians, laboratory practice professionals, genetic counselors, nurses and others who have a special interest in the field of human genetics. Members of ASHG entered the 21st century with a commitment to become fluent in the language of the genome, understand human variation, and promote the public health. As we transfer new knowledge to the next generation of genetics professionals and the public, we will translate new ideas into improved clinical practice.

7 WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT 5 Dear Fellow Members of ASHG, Welcome to our 2012 Annual Meeting. The theme for our meeting this year is The Scientist as a Citizen of the World. This theme was selected for two reasons. First, this year has been an extraordinarily productive one for human genetics research based in populations from all parts of the world. Human genetics is inherently a science without borders. Now, economic constraints notwithstanding, we have reached a moment in which the scientific work of our field is carried out in very large part by geneticists from the places of origin of populations being studied. Some of this work is internationally collaborative, and the projects are true, not token, joint efforts. Our field owes this rapid democratization in part to the virtually overnight dissemination of next generation sequencing technology, and in part to the cleverness of human geneticists worldwide who exploit this technology by inventively integrating local, regional, and international capacities. A little outsourcing goes a long way in the right hands. Results of international collaborations are integrated into every session of this ASHG meeting. I point out this feature of our meeting explicitly, because we take international collaboration so much for granted that we might not notice it otherwise. We are fortunate in this. It is not the way of the world as a whole. Second, what happens this week in the U.S. will have enormous consequences for us all. As human geneticists, we are in the privileged position of having far more awareness of the world than most of our fellow citizens (wherever we are originally from), and therefore the responsibility to try to help the next years be ones of progress for our communities. Collectively, we are many (more than 8000), with considerable intellectual influence, if not explicit political power, in our communities. We enjoy more autonomy than most in exercising that influence, in part because we have each other. ASHG is both our home for productive science and for forming friendships that transcend borders. Collaboration bridges conflict for far more people than those engaged in the science itself. So welcome to the 62nd ASHG Annual Meeting. Enjoy a lovely week in this beautiful city, greet old friends, make new friends, arrange a post-doc or a sabbatical year in a place not previously your own, and think of fine projects together. It is a great pleasure to see you here. With all best wishes, Mary-Claire King President, ASHG

9 7 WELCOME FROM THE PROGRAM CHAIR On behalf of the ASHG Program Committee and the Board of Directors, welcome to the Society s 62 nd Annual Meeting in San Francisco! The 2012 Program Committee has developed an exceptional program. This year, we received a record 3845 abstracts, from which 411 were chosen for plenary/platform oral presentations and over 3400 of the remaining abstracts are being presented as scientific posters. In addition, there are 24 invited scientific sessions, chosen from the 95 proposals submitted this year. The program committee has worked to assemble an exciting and outstanding scientific program that balances basic, translational, and clinical research with sessions that address timely issues. The schedule once again features separate tracks (trainees, clinical and educational) to help you select the sessions most relevant to your interests. The meeting begins on Tuesday at 4:00 pm with the Presidential Address The Scientist as a Citizen of the World by Mary-Claire King. The address will be streamed live on the ASHG Web site and will be followed by the plenary abstract presentations with topics including comparative epigenomics, early exome sequencing in complex traits, large-scale identification of enhancers and cis-acting regulators of translation, and integrated genetic and functional studies of disease-causing variants (see page 68 for details). Afterwards, we hope you join us to reconnect with friends and colleagues and make new connections at the Opening Mixer and Trainee Mixer-Within-A-Mixer starting at 7:00 pm in the San Francisco Marriott Marquis Hotel. Each day, you will have the opportunity to select from concurrent invited and platform presentations. Poster presentations will be held on each of three afternoons following the lunch period, and all posters will remain on display throughout the three days. The final session of the day on Wednesday is the invited Presidential Symposium entitled Gene Discovery and Patent Law: Present Experience in the US and in Europe. Please plan to join us from 4:30 pm until 6:30 pm to discuss the present state of gene patenting. Come prepared with your written questions for the well-known panelists: Hank Greely, Gert Matthijs, Mark Lemley and Lori Andrews. (See page 81 for further details). In response to survey requests from prior meeting attendees, the Program Committee lengthened the lunch break to 90 minutes and added evening workshops in a variety of topics. Workshops will cover interactive browser sessions (UCSC, Galaxy and Ensembl Browsers), NCBI databases (Sequence Read Archive, GenBank, GEO, dbsnp, dbvar and dbgap) and clinical interpretation of databases (such as DECIPHER,

10 8 WELCOME FROM THE PROGRAM CHAIR ISCA, DbVar). In addition, there will be a session on how scientists can use social media to benefit their career as well as a workshop on Diagnostic Dilemmas, with presentation of rare and unknown cases. The Society s Board of Directors and the Program Committee continue to share a strong commitment for trainee academic development. Therefore, this year, we have increased the value of trainee awards. The awards were also renamed to honor the late Charles J. Epstein. We continue to offer several events designed to assist our trainee members in their transition toward professional independence. These events include: (1) the Undergraduate Faculty Genetics Education Workshop, (2) the Trainee- Mentor Luncheon, (3) the Trainee Development Program and Networking Reception, and (4) a Mock NIH Study Section Workshop. Please refer to page 29 for the trainee meeting within the meeting schedule. The meeting will conclude on Saturday with a special closing symposium entitled, Human Genetics 2012 and Beyond: Present Progress and Future Frontiers, from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm. This symposium will feature a panel of five outstanding geneticists with diverse perspectives: Han Brunner, Hal Dietz, Dian Donnai, Lynn Jorde, and Jay Shendure. The panel will address exciting advances presented at this year s meeting and will discuss the opportunities and challenges for the coming years. Attendees will have opportunities to ask questions of the panelists during the session in person and through social media. Chris Gunter will also pose relevant questions to attendees via social media during the meeting, and summarize the responses at the opening of the session. Feedback To determine whether the programmatic changes implemented were successful, and to gather suggestions for future meetings, we will be sending an online survey after the meeting to all attendees. Please take the time to complete the survey and provide us with valuable feedback that we can consider for future meetings. Acknowledgments Developing a program for the ASHG Annual Meeting is a complex process, requiring the coordinated efforts of many individuals over thousands of person-hours. A description of how the Program Committee puts together the scientific content of the meeting can be found on page 327. This past year, I have had the privilege of working with a truly exceptional Program Committee each member generously volunteering his/her expertise and time to develop an outstanding scientific program. I am also grateful to the Education, Social Issues, and Awards committees for their valuable contributions to the meeting. Finally, my deepest appreciation goes to our ASHG administrative staff (with a special note of thanks to Peggi McGovern, Pauline Minhinnett, and Dr. Joann Boughman) for their enthusiastic dedication and tireless work in making our Annual Meeting the success that it is. I hope that you enjoy the meeting, and again, a warm welcome to San Francisco! Joel N. Hirschhorn, MD, PhD 2012 Program Committee Chair Boston s Children s Hospital/Harvard Medical School Broad Institute

We both take this citizenship for granted and take its responsibilities seriously. In one generation, this role has evolved dramatically, as scientists travel far more widely and as modern communication tools enable us to remain in contact with our colleagues worldwide. In my presidential address, I will specify some elements of the scientific life that lead naturally to world citizenship. Then I will focus in particular on how the intellectual structure of human genetics enables us to be particularly effective world citizens. I will also discuss migration as a force in our lives, as well as in human evolution, and will try to define the concept of home for a scientist. Finally, I will suggest that scientific goals are both practical and idealistic, and that we should celebrate both.

71 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 69 Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) SESSION 3 Implementing Next-Generation Sequencing as a Clinical Test Hall D, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Nazneen Aziz, Col. of American Pathologists, Lexington, MA; Ira Lubin, Ctr. for Dis. Control and Prevent. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is used widely in clinical research for the discovery of diseaseassociated genes and the clinical community is beginning to embrace this technology for diagnostic testing. The rapid evolution of NGS technologies presents significant opportunities and challenges for researchers and clinicians for improving health outcomes; particularly with respect to an increased emphasis on personalized and preventive medicine. Adoption of NGS in the clinical laboratory setting requires the adoption of many processes and procedures, such as, the analytic and clinical validation of the test, CLIA/CAP certification, standards for reference materials for proficiency testing, and questions regarding reimbursement and informed consent. This session will initially review the state of NGS in the clinical setting today and what is anticipated in the near future. This will be followed by consideration for what is practically needed for clinical adoption of NGS such as regulatory and professional standards, development, availability, and access to reference materials, and the laboratory professional s role for ensuring high quality test results that are useful for informing clinical decision making. This session will be informative and practical for the researcher and laboratorians who are considering launching NGS as a clinical test. 8:00 AM Challenges of introducing NGS in the clinical laboratory. S. Richards. Oregon Hlth. & Sci. Univ. 8:15 AM Addressing the fundamentals: NGS validation and implementation in a clinical setting. M. Hegde.

SESSION 4 Assessing the Pathogenicity of Genetic Variants: Translating in Vitro and in Silico Advances to the Clinic Gateway Ballroom 103, Lower Level South, Moscone Center Moderators: Marc S. Greenblatt, Univ. of Vermont; Sean V. Tavtigian, Univ. of Utah Interpreting which genetic variants are pathogenic and which are not remains a critical challenge in the genetics of hereditary cancer syndromes and other inherited disorders. Genetic testing for disorders such as Lynch syndrome (caused by mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes) and hereditary breast-ovarian cancer (BRCA1, BRCA2 genes) often identifies a `Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). As DNA sequencing capacity increases at a furious pace, there is an ever greater need to have effective methods to analyze these data. There is a consensus in the field of genetic testing that proper classification of variants requires the integration of multiple types of data. Some lines of evidence are familiar to clinicians (e.g., segregation of an allele with disease, detailed phenotype), and others are less familiar (e.g., in vitro protein functional assays, in silico algorithms based on gene sequence or protein structure). Ideally, integration can be done in a quantitative way, such as Bayesian probabilistic analysis, but qualitative data may be used if quantitative measurements are not possible. This session will 1) explore recent advances in applying and integrating statistical, laboratory, and computational methods in the classification of missense, splice site, and other genetic variants, and 2) report on international collaborations that are using these methods to classify variants in mismatch repair, BRCA, and other genes and disseminating validated conclusions to the cancer genetics community. 8:00 AM Innovative in vitro and in vivo assays to investigate the function of mismatch repair gene variants in Lynch syndrome.

72 70 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) SESSION 5 Gene Regulatory Change: The Engine of Human Evolution? Room 135, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: James P. Noonan, Yale Univ. Sch. of Med.; Nadav Ahituv, UCSF What makes us human? Classic human traits, such as language and sophisticated tool use, are the result of physical changes during human evolution, including increased brain complexity and altered limb morphology. This session will focus on efforts to identify evolutionary changes in gene regulation that produced uniquely human phenotypes. Speakers will describe novel approaches that are empowering research in this emerging field, and the insights that are being gained. Topics to be discussed include: 1) Computational identification of putative gene regulatory elements that changed extensively during human evolution; 2) The role of repetitive elements in generating novel regulatory functions; 3) Humanspecific loss of developmental regulatory elements; 4) New methods to link phenotypic and genotypic variation across closely related species, and the implications for understanding human-specific biology and disease; and 5) Identifying humanspecific developmental regulatory changes by direct comparisons of enhancer function and gene expression in embryonic human and nonhuman primate tissues using functional genomics. The session will illustrate how the synthesis of diverse computational and experimental approaches is beginning to reveal the genetic basis of unique human biology. 8:00 AM Chromatin profiling of human embryonic tissues identifies regulatory elements with humanspecific developmental functions.

Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) SESSION 6 Insights into Human Demography and Selection from Full Genome Sequencing Room 134, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Jeffrey M. Kidd, Univ. of Michigan; Carlos D. Bustamante, Stanford Univ. Next-generation sequencing allows geneticists to directly test the extent and pattern of natural selection in the human genome. These new genomic data address previous concerns of ascertainment bias and accurate identification of causal alleles. Recently, population geneticists have proposed multiple, strong positive sweeps related to diet and immune defense, pervasive negative selection in and nearby genes, and adaptation by allele frequency shifts from standing variation. The proportion of the human genome attributable to these different patterns is currently under intense debate. Furthermore, selection is operating on the background of complex human demography, such as long-range continental migrations and population-specific bottlenecks. This symposium aims to provide diverse viewpoints on the different modes of selection operating on the human genome and a discussion of how demographic processes may have constrained evolution in both recent and ancient human history. 8:00 AM The effect of out-of-africa migrations on the distribution of deleterious alleles in diverse human genomes.

73 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 71 Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) Wednesday, November 7 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session I (3-10) SESSION 7 Age-Related Macular Degeneration GWAS and Beyond: Guiding Light for the Complex Neurodegenerative Diseases Gateway Ballroom 104, Lower Level South, Moscone Center Moderators: Anand Swaroop, NEI/NIH; Hemin Chin, NEI/NIH AMD is a complex multi-factorial neurodegenerative disease that is a major cause of visual impairment in the elderly. Genetic linkage and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been immensely successful in identifying genetic susceptibility loci in AMD and in providing insights into cellular pathways underlying pathogenesis of the disease. Numerous groups worldwide have validated the strong association of variants at CFH and ARMS2/HTRA1 loci with AMD risk, and genome-wide association studies have suggested the involvement of complement, extracellular matrix, angiogenesis and HDL cholesterol pathways. This session will discuss the current progress to carry out comprehensive genetic analyses of AMD, highlighting experimental approaches that may be applicable to other complex traits and multigenic diseases. The speakers in this session will provide the current status of meta-analysis of AMD- GWAS, targeted resequencing, and whole exome sequencing efforts to discover or search for rare causal variants and functional pathways, and diagnostic/therapeutic implications of genetic variants. Additionally, we will discuss the relevance of AMD genetics for other complex neurodegenerative diseases and the future of genetic studies. 8:00 AM The bigger the better: Searching for novel loci for age-related macular degeneration in a large consortium effort.

SESSION 8 Yes Virginia, Family Studies Really Are Useful for Complex Traits in the Next-Generation Sequencing Era (session in honor of Dr. Robert Elston s contributions to human genetics in the year of his 80th birthday) Room 124, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Michael A. Province, Washington Univ. in St. Louis; Francoise Clerget-Darpoux, INSERM U781, Univ. Paris V, France. The pros and cons of family designs as NGS targets in dissecting complex traits are presented. In the linkage era, family studies were ubiquitous, but they were largely neglected in the GWAS era, which concentrated mostly on unrelated subjects. But as attention now moves from the common to the rare variants that can only be completely interrogated through sequencing, it is useful to at least consider whether the designs that were optimal for GWAS remain so for NGS studies. Pedigrees seem to have at least some advantages over studies of unrelateds for studying rare variation. First, it may be easier to distinguish true rare variant calls from sequence errors in family designs than it is in unrelated cohorts, since there is the added dimension of pedigree consistency information, especially for low coverage. Second, a key statistical challenge to analyzing the phenotype/ genotype correlation with rare variants, is finding enough copies of any one variant allele with which to make inferences (hence the various collapsing or burden tests, which combine multiple nearby rare variants into a single test). For any given very rare allele, sampling additional unrelateds is an inefficient strategy to find more copies of that allele, whereas family members of allele carriers are much more likely to be allele carriers themselves. On the other hand, a disadvantage of family designs is that there is a smaller diversity of founder mutations, so less of the overall population of alleles is measured per individual. This session emphasizes the results of real sequencing studies in pedigrees as well as simulation results to delineate the areas in which family designs offer advantages and where they offer disadvantages over sequencing unrelated subjects, such as case-control designs. 8:00 AM Whole genome sequencing in large pedigrees for the identification of human QTLs.

83 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 81 Wednesday, November 7 4:30 PM 6:30 PM SESSION 20 Invited Presidential Symposium: Gene Discovery and Patent Law: Present Experience in the U.S. and in Europe Hall D, Lower Level North, Moscone Center With the present extraordinary pace of gene discovery, the question of who, if anyone, owns newly discovered genes will be critical to research and practice in human genetics. This issue was before the U.S. Supreme Court and remanded to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals as Association for Molecular Pathology et al. v. Myriad Genetics, No where the decision was affirmed. In order to understand the many legal issues represented by this case, the role of this case in the larger context of legal issues in genetics, and the consequences of the decision on this case for research and services in human genetics, we have asked a panel of experts to educate us. Hank Greely, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for Law and Biosciences at Stanford University, will moderate the panel and present an overview of issues on which genetics and the law have come in contact in the U.S. Lori Andrews, Professor of Law at IIT Chicago-Kent College of Law and Fellow of the Hastings Institution, will describe the issues of the Myriad case and the roles of lawyers, practitioners and advocates in the evolution of the case. Mark Lemley, Professor of Law and Director of the Program in Law, Science, and Technology at Stanford University, will describe the meaning of patents in the context of intellectual property in general and gene discovery in particular. Gert Matthijs, Professor and Head of the Laboratory for Molecular Diagnostics at the Center for Human Genetics at University of Leuven, Belgium, will discuss the challenge to gene patenting brought to the European Patent Office by European human geneticists, the consequences for genetics services of the 2008 EPO decisions, and the present issues of gene patents in Europe. We intend these presentations to be educational rather than confrontational. Each speaker will present both their own views and alternative, opposing points of view. Our goal is to understand the complexity of these issues from the legal perspective. Considerable time after the presentations will be devoted to answering questions from the audience. We hope ASHG members will enjoy looking at these questions from a different angle and will find this perspective useful in their future research.

84 82 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS Thursday, November 8 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session II (21-28) SESSION 21 Mendelian Randomization: Using Genetic Variants to Inform Causality in Observational Epidemiology Room 135, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: David M. Evans, Univ. of Bristol, U.K.; Lyle J. Palmer, Univ. of Ontario, Canada A central problem in classical observational epidemiology concerns whether an association between a medically relevant exposure and a disease outcome reflects a causal relationship, or whether the purported association is a spurious result of latent confounding, bias or reverse causality. For example, does an inverse correlation between red wine drinking and heart disease, mean that red wine prevents heart attacks? The gold standard in proving whether an association reflects a causal relationship is the randomized controlled trial (RCT), in which participants are randomly assigned into groups that differ on average only in terms of their treatment (exposure) effect. However, RCTs are typically expensive, of long duration and in some cases, ethically or practically infeasible to implement. Mendelian randomization is a relatively new methodology that uses genetic variants that have been robustly associated with medically relevant exposures from genetic association studies (e.g. genetic variants related to BMI, smoking, alcohol etc.) to determine whether these exposures are truly causally related to disease outcomes. This session describes the principles behind Mendelian randomization, explains how Mendelian randomization can be used in epidemiological and gene expression studies to assess causality, describes its assumptions and limitations, and finally discusses extensions and promising alternatives to the method. 8:00 AM Mendelian randomization: Overcoming the limitations. G. D. Smith. Univ. of Bristol, U.K. 8:30 AM Utilizing multiple variants to improve Mendelian randomization studies. B. Pierce.

Thursday, November 8 8:00 AM 10:00 AM Concurrent Invited Session II (21-28) SESSION 22 Common and Rare CNVs: Genesis, Patterns of Variations and Human Diseases Hall D, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Chack Yung Yu, Nationwide Children s Hosp. and The Ohio State Univ.; Edward J. Hollox, Univ. of Leicester, U.K. Copy number variation (CNV) is a part of human genomic variation. There are two types of CNVs. The first type is common CNVs that occur at regions with complex genomic structures and engage genes involving in gene-environment interactions. The diversity of common CNVs both in terms of copy number and sequence variation is remarkable, yet because of their complex and challenging nature, they are under-studied. The second type is de novo or recent CNVs involved deletions and duplications of genomic DNA fragments that are rare individually but moderately frequent collectively, particularly among subjects with developmental, neurologic and psychiatric disorders. This session will highlight the complexity of common CNVs and discuss their roles in immune-mediated and cognitive diseases. In addition, the session will feature mechanistic studies to understand the generation of CNVs, and illustrate techniques for the detection and quantification of common and rare CNVs. 8:00 AM CNVs engaged in immune complex handling and autoimmune diseases: Complement C4 and immunoglobulin Fc-gamma receptors.

Evans, Univ. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Next-generation sequencing of the human genome has the potential to predict disease risk, identify disease causation, and refine therapeutic interventions. As research-based sequencing moves into clinical practice, however, a number of ethical and social questions will enter mainstream practice, and will need to be addressed in a practical manner to inform best practices. For example, how do key stakeholders (patients, providers, researchers, and the public) view the risks and benefits of genome sequencing, and how can benefits be optimized and risks mitigated? How do we address children s rights as well as other family members rights with respect to potentially shared information learned from sequencing individuals? Empirical data can contribute to a better understanding of these issues; but what kinds of data are most relevant and how can they be used to inform practice and policy? How do we navigate the increasingly blurred line between research and clinical care? These issues will be discussed and empirical data presented by a panel of experts investigating the ethical and social issues of genome sequencing in a variety of research and patient populations. 8:00 AM Views of patients, parents of patients, and clinicians toward whole genome sequencing for clinical care management.

Sch. of Med. Yeast, worms, flies, zebrafish, and mice are key model organisms that offer powerful experimental approaches for the study of biological processes relevant to human biology and disease. The genome sequencing projects of the 1990s reemphasized the striking extent to which all organisms are built from the same genes, and highlighted the enormous value of model experimental organisms for the study of evolutionarily conserved gene function. Few, if any, processes at the gene level are known to be unique to humans. Indeed, key aspects of most human disorders can be modeled in experimentally tractable organisms through the analysis of orthologous genes and pathways, using the genetic, biochemical and cell biological toolboxes that have been developed in each model organism. This symposium will accent the current relevance of model organism studies for the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of human disease, and anticipate the future role of model organisms in human disease research. We chose to highlight a diverse set of biological processes and experimental systems to make the point that the principles of cross species analysis of basic gene function extend to the study of all human disorders. 8:00 AM Budding yeast: Lessons from yeast applied to the study of human genetic diseases of protein traffic.

Scott, Univ. of Miami; Jeffrey R. O Connell, Univ. of Maryland Baltimore This session will present recent developments in the application of whole-exome or whole-genome sequencing (collectively `next-generation sequencing or NGS) in samples from genetically isolated populations. Such populations have long been the focus of gene discovery efforts for complex traits because of the hypothesized reduction in the genetic complexity of the trait, and the enrichment of rare alleles. Prior genome-wide linkage efforts could detect large genomic regions potentially harboring rare alleles, while genome-wide association efforts could detect smaller areas with more common alleles. NGS allows the direct examination of both common and rare alleles and can be analyzed in both frameworks. Characterisics of isolated population may facilitate the blending of NGS with these prior approaches, by deep sequencing a small number of individuals to use as a reference panel for imputation within pedigrees or on the population level, by `filtering detected variants against pedigree relationships (or kinship estimates) in individuals with the trait. However, since the structure of the population must be taken into account, application of existing reference panels or methods for these analyses must be done carefully. The speakers for this session will discuss approaches to using NGS data for gene discovery for complex traits in isolated populations, reviewing methodologic approaches specific to such studies and illustrating their use in data sets drawn from such populations. 8:00 AM Using low-pass whole genome sequencing to create a reference population for genome imputation in an isolated population: Examples from the SardiNIA study.

The Genetics Prize is presented to a leading scientist, or up to three, in recognition of groundbreaking contributions to any realm of genetics research. The recipient will be presented with a gold medal and a $500,000 unrestricted cash award. Recipient: Douglas Wallace, PhD Prof. of Pathol. and Lab. Med., Univ. of Pennsylvania Ctr. of Mitochondrial and Epigenomic Med., Children s Hosp. of Philadelphia The 2012 Genetics Prize of The Gruber Foundation will be presented to pioneering geneticist Douglas C. Wallace for the discovery of mutations in the mitochondrial genome and their impact on human health and disease. Dr. Wallace will deliver a lecture entitled, A Bioenergetic Perspective on Origins, Health, and Disease. Life is the interplay between structure (anatomy), energy (vital force), and the information to encode the structural and energetic systems. Classical Western biomedical thought has taken an anatomical perspective on disease and a Mendelian perspective on genetics. However, these perspectives are proving increasingly inadequate to explain the biological and genetic basis of complex diseases, cancer, and aging. To augment this classical perspective, we need to consider the bioenergetics of the eukarotic cell which is centered on the symbiotic bacterium known as the mitochondrion. The mitochondrion has its own DNA, the mitochondrial DNA (mtdna), which encodes the core cellular energy genes. Mutations in the mtdna have been found to cause the full range of complex disease phenotypes, the thousands of mtdnas per cell provides an alternative explanation for quantitative genetic traits, and the analysis of mtdna variation in human populations has offered new insights into ancient ancestral migrations and adaptation to alternative environments. The causal role of bioenergetic changes in complex disease has been validated by the introduction of mtdna mutations into mice which then manifest common complex disease phenotypes. The recognition of the dichotomy between anatomical-chromosomal genes and bioenergetic-mtdna genes has generated new insights INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS Taking photographs or sound recordings in all meeting rooms is strictly prohibited.

McKusick Leadership Award Presentation Hall D, Lower Level North, Moscone Center ASHG established this prestigious award in honor of Dr. Victor A. McKusick and his inspiring contributions to the human genetics field. The McKusick Leadership Award is presented to an individual whose professional achievements have fostered and enriched the development of the field of human genetics. Recipients of this award exemplify the enduring leadership and vision required to ensure that the field of human genetics will flourish and successfully assimilate into the broader context of science, medicine, and health. Introduction: Joann A. Boughman, Univ. Syst. of Maryland Recipient: year later, he was chosen by President Obama to serve as the director of the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Collins has received many awards for his achievements in science and technology, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November 2007, the National Medal of Science in 2009, and election into the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences. Dr. Collins has also made singing for science an emphasis of his professional career. His efforts in education and outreach are commended by many. These efforts include, among many others, creating clinical partnerships with four historically black colleges and universities to develop clinical research degrees and conduct treatment trials among minority patients, and establishing the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences to enhance the process of translating scientific discoveries into new drugs, diagnostics, and devices. Dr. Collins continues to play a vital role in the advancement of genetics and medical research and the improvement of health and medicine. Francis S. Collins, MD, PhD Director, National Institutes of Health Dr. Collins has been named as the 2012 winner in recognition of his extensive achievements in genetics research, his efforts to advance health science and technology through policy and education, and his stellar leadership of the genetics community in mapping the human genome. The revolution that was dreamed of at the start of the Human Genome Project is currently being realized. Today s medical geneticists, genetic counselors, and other health professionals are increasingly able to identify and test genes associated with both single-gene and complex disease. Today s medical researchers are increasingly able to investigate treatments and therapies for diseases with genetic causes. These medical and scientific advances would not have been possible without Dr. Collin s leadership and dedication to studying the molecular genetics of diseases, for the benefit of health and medicine. During the completion of the NIH-based Human Genome Project, Dr. Collins served as the Director of the National Human Genome Research Institute. However, prior to taking on that leadership role, he had already contributed much to human genetics. He took part in the identification of the gene for cystic fibrosis in 1989, the gene for neurofibromatosis in 1990, and the gene for Huntington s disease in His laboratory is known for its past and continuing focus on the function of genes involved in breast cancer, diabetes, Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, and many other conditions.

121 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 119 Saturday, November 10 8:55 AM 9:20 AM SESSION 72 ASHG Curt Stern Award Presentation Hall D, Lower Level North, Moscone Center The Curt Stern Award is given annually by ASHG in recognition of major scientific achievement in human genetics that has occurred in the last 10 years. The work could be a single discovery or a series of contributions on similar or related topics. This Award honors the memory of Dr. Curt Stern ( ), an outstanding pioneer in human genetics who served as ASHG president in Introduction: Evan Eichler, Univ. of Washington Recipient: Jay A. Shendure, MD, PhD Assoc. Prof., Dept. of Genome Sciences, Univ. of Washington Dr. Shendure was selected for his outstanding contributions to the broad development and application of exome sequencing and its truly revolutionary effects on human genetics, as well as for the development of methods for high-throughput functional analysis of non-coding areas of DNA. This work has been - and will continue to be - of great impact to human disease gene discovery and understanding in clinical genetics. Importantly, these contributions have permitted individual (particularly small) clinical and laboratory groups to make significant contributions to our understanding of disease. Most recently, Dr. Shendure and colleagues non-invasively sequenced the whole genome of a fetus, using DNA from the blood of the mother and the saliva of the father. This work will lead to major changes in prenatal diagnosis as the field moves toward non-invasive yet comprehensive testing. Dr. Shendure is one of the most promising young scientists in our genetics community. He will certainly continue to lead the way in developing techniques that will have great impact on patients. Past Recipients: David Altshuler (2011); Vivian Cheung (2010); David Haussler and James Kent (2009); Evan Eichler (2008); Jeffrey Murray (2007); Hal Dietz (2006); Patrick Brown (2005); Neil Risch (2004); David Page (2003); James Lupski (2002); Daniel Pinkel and Joe Gray (2001). Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 73 Returning Results from Large-Scale Sequencing: Where the Rubber Meets the Road Gateway Ballroom 103, Lower Level South, Moscone Center Moderators: Leslie G. Biesecker, NHGRI/NIH; Robert C. Green, Brigham and Women s Hosp. Medicine is on the brink of a revolution, as large-scale medical sequencing (LSMS) is now available for patient care, marking the dawn of genomic medicine. LSMS may be used in patients with a family history or symptoms of a disease for diagnosis or to predict future health risks for prevention and surveillance. Developing standards and procedures for the use of LSMS in clinical medicine is critical and there is a need for empiric data to determine how to interpret, analyze, and return results. A critical question is how to handle secondary findings from LSMS. Speakers in this session will share their pioneering research initiatives that explore the translation of LSMS into meaningful clinical information and the delivery to patients. The speakers will report on a range of studies, including patients ascertained with diseases, healthy volunteers, adults, and children, research versus clinical, and rare versus common disease. All of the speakers will focus on results, and not just opinions, to inform the practice of genomic medicine and future research studies on the return of results. Dr. Biesecker will introduce the session and present ClinSeq, a large cohort LSMS study with return of results to subjects. Dr. Green will present the results of two efforts to formulate consensus on return of incidental findings in LSMS. Dr. Kingsmore will present experience with neonatal and pediatric diagnosis by LSMS.

Sch. of Med. Although the gene(s) underlying approximately 3,000 Mendelian disorders are known, there are thousands of well-defined or suspected Mendelian disorders for which the genetic basis remains unknown. The past three years have been witness to an explosion of interest in applying new technologies such as exome and genome sequencing to identify the genetic basis of Mendelian disorders that have proven intractable to conventional strategies. In this session, we will describe the progress as well as current challenges facing efforts to scale and accelerate the application of next-generation technologies to Mendelian disorders, e.g. the U.S.-based Mendelian Genome Centers as well as related international efforts. Topics that will be explored include primary research results from leading groups in this field; advances and ongoing challenges in phenotype curation, sequencing technology, and data analysis; and the broader implications of these efforts for biology and medicine. 9:40 AM Genomic approaches to Mendelian disorders.

Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 75 Emerging Applications of Identity by Descent Segment Detection Gateway Ballroom 104, Lower Level South, Moscone Center Moderators: Sharon R. Browning, Univ. of Washington; Brian L. Browning, Univ. of Washington Identity by descent (IBD) is fundamental to genetics and has diverse applications. Recently developed statistical methods and genome-wide SNP data have made it possible to detect haplotypes shared identically by descent between individuals with common ancestry up to generations ago. With sequence data, shared haplotypes from even more distant ancestry can be detected. Patterns of IBD segment sharing within and between populations reveal important population demographic features including recent effective population size and migration patterns. IBD segment sharing is directly relevant to disease gene mapping and estimation of heritability. Individuals who share a genetic basis for a trait are more likely to have IBD sharing compared to randomly chosen individuals, and this forms the basis for IBD mapping and heritability estimation. Analysis of data from extended pedigrees was extremely difficult with standard linkage approaches, but is now possible using approaches based on detected IBD segments. Detected IBD can be present across pedigrees, which enhances power to detect association with the trait. Further, in population samples there is potential to utilize detected IBD segments to improve power to detect association when multiple variants within a gene influence the trait. IBD segments can also be used to greatly improve haplotype phase estimates, which is critical to understanding the functional consequence of genetic variation. IBD-based longrange phasing has previously been shown to be effective in isolated populations such as Iceland, but recent advances have extended its application to large outbred populations. In this session, we explore these exciting new developments. 9:40 AM Sharing by descent, phasing, rare variants and population structure. A.

123 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 121 Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 76 The Functional Consequences of microrna Dysregulation in Human Disease Room 134, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Cheryl L. Thompson, Case Western Reserve Univ.; Ahmad Khalil, Case Western Reserve Univ. MicroRNAs (mirnas) are an evolutionarily conserved class of small non-coding RNAs that have been shown to regulate the expression levels of numerous proteincoding genes. Although integral to animal biology, their role in human disease has only recently been studied. Previously, numerous mirnas have been demonstrated to be dysregulated in multiple diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological disease and many others. However, the exact functions and mechanisms of these mirnas in human diseases are yet to be fully elucidated. A number of recent studies have now begun to shed light on the role of mirnas in disease, providing insights into mechanisms for imitation and progression of disease as well as targets for preventive and therapeutic intervention. In this session we have assembled a group of world leaders in the field of mirna and human diseases.

Nussbaum, UCSF; David H. Ledbetter, Geisinger Hlth. Syst., Danville, PA Hundreds of thousands of disease-causing variants have been identified in patients with disease, yet only a small fraction of that data, and the interpretation of it, is accessible to researchers and clinicians. The centralization of data on human genomic variation is a critical step in accelerating advances within the field of genomic medicine. Such centralization of variant data will not only enable more efficient approaches to data analysis, but will also ensure the use of a uniform set of standards across the many communities contributing data and intending to use the resources for research and clinical applications. This session will highlight groups that have recently joined efforts to solve this challenge and create a free and useful human genomic mutation database for the community. 9:40 AM Improving the accuracy of variant identification.

124 122 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 78 Stem Cells and Personalized Medicine Room 135, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderator: Stephen H. Tsang, Columbia Univ. Speakers will discuss applications of patient-specific and disease-specific stem cell lines, including disease modeling, drug screening, and regenerative medicine. Panelists will bring experience in clinical genetics, genetic manipulation in stem cells, and disease modeling. The FDA has recently approved phase I/II clinical trials to investigate the safety and efficacy of embryonic stem cell-based retinal cell transplantation, but such therapy requires immunosuppression. Patient-specific stem cells may offer an alternative to embryonic stem cells that will skirt the need for immunosuppressive therapy as well as the social and political ramifications of embryonic stem cell research, but their utility even extends far beyond such groundbreaking advances. 9:40 AM Stem cells and personalized medicine in retinal degenerations.

Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 79 Should Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis Augment or Replace Current Prenatal Screening and Diagnosis? Room 124, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Mark E. Nunes, Kaiser Permanente, San Diego; Mildred K. Cho, Stanford Univ. The discovery of circulating cell-free fetal nucleic acid (cffdna) in maternal blood plasma in 1997 allowed for the development of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) offered commercially in a medical setting in North America beginning in October From the initial discovery, ethical issues were raised in that the method could most easily be validated seeking circulating Y chromosome transcripts. The method subsequently has been validated for fetal Rh typing and fetal aneuploidy, but the next-generation sequencing methods used to analyze cffdna allow any Mendelian trait or disorder with a known gene to be detected by the method. This technology convergence, coupled with the test being offered at 10-weeks gestation, could provide a level of access and choice in women s reproductive decision making unprecedented since the introduction of oral contraception. We will briefly introduce the topic, and then debate the ethical, legal, and social issues of broadening the scope and availability of NIPD. The technique will be placed in the context of the history of seeking fetal markers and cells in maternal circulation. The ethical context will be outlined, with competing issues of autonomy and societal interest. The legal context, within the current debate surrounding reproductive freedom, will be discussed. The possible impact on society and medical practice will be described. 9:40 AM Lessons from the clinical introduction of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis: How we got here. A. T. Bombard.

125 INVITED AND PLATFORM SESSIONS 123 Saturday, November 10 9:40 AM 11:40 AM Concurrent Invited Session III (73-80) SESSION 80 Selection Signatures and the Genetics of Autoimmunity and Infectious Diseases Room 130, Lower Level North, Moscone Center Moderators: Judy H. Cho, Yale Univ.; Richard A. Spritz, Univ. of Colorado Denver Anschutz Med. Campus The overlap of autoimmune and infectious disease loci is one of the seminal findings of the GWAS era. The presence of a relatively limited and recurring number of major autoimmune and infectious diseaseassociated genes and pathways may well correspond with functional networks that evolved in response to historically significant infectious pathogens. It may be speculated that the plethora of common functional polymorphisms identified through GWAS in autoimmune diseases evolved through positive selection; in subsequent eras and environmental conditions, these once beneficial polymorphisms confer increased susceptibility to autoimmunity. Support for this concept is provided by the observation that uncommon, often highly penetrant, mutations in overlapping genes and pathways are associated in infectious diseases such as severe mycobacterial infections. Predictive functional networks may be optimized by integration of complementary data sources, notably selection signatures. Novel approaches of identifying signatures of positive selection at single and multiple loci will require integration of genetic association data with biologic data that optimally models relevant selection conditions. 9:40 AM Genetics and Autoimmunity.

ASHG 2012 Learning Objectives All attendees obtaining CME credits will be able to apply the newly acquired knowledge and methods in the evaluation, diagnosis, intervention, treatment and follow-up of patients with a variety of disorders. At the completion of the meeting, participants will be able to: (1) recognize gaps in knowledge of facts and new methods in genetics; (2) demonstrate ways that the new information and its context may be applied in their own practices; (3) better interpret results of complex genetic tests and recognize instances of most appropriate use; and (4) understand in detail the benefits and potential harms of utilizing the newest genetic technologies. The 2012 ASHG Annual Meeting will help attendees to: Identify and fill gaps in knowledge in human genetics in areas of statistical analysis, full genome sequencing, next-generation sequencing, genetic neurodegenerative and other disorders, and epigenetics. Explain the value and use of newest technological methods in full genome sequencing in diagnosis of disorders and family studies. Provide context from discussions on the benefits and harms of returning results of full genome sequencing to patients. Set principles for the provision of results and their interpretation in full genome sequencing and the diagnosis of genetic risks and explain how genome sequencing may be useful in an undiagnosed patient. Accrue guidelines for the successful counseling of patients receiving complex genetic results. Present the newest results of gene therapy trials so clinicians may enroll patients or apply therapies to appropriate patents. Identify and explain the newest non-invasive pre-natal diagnostic methods. Integrate results of genomic testing into electronic health records and other methods to store information.

329 CMEs and CEUs 327 Recognize methods to utilize centralized databases in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. ASHG 2012 Target Audience This meeting is targeted to research scientists, clinical and laboratory practitioners and others interested in the field of human genetics and genomics. There is some special focus on workshops intended for trainees. The program is varied so that participants may select from several concurrent sessions that fit their specialized research interests and clinical practice applications. CMEs and CEUs Program Format Invited Sessions The 2012 program is highlighted by 24 invited scientific sessions that have been scheduled over three concurrent time periods. The Program Committee reviewed 95 proposals for invited sessions. The review process took into consideration the merit and timeliness of each proposal as well as the need to balance topics in the overall scientific program. The sessions highlight a wide range of topics of interest to genetics practitioners, researchers and counselors. Any conflicts were managed in the process described above. Plenary Session Presentations and Platform Sessions (abstract-driven) The Plenary Session includes a diverse set of six presentations, selected from the top-rated abstracts submitted for this year s annual meeting as determined by the 2012 Program Committee. Forty-five abstract-driven platform sessions totaling 405 oral presentations have been programmed. There are five sets of nine concurrent platform sessions. The Program Committee had the difficult task of determining which abstracts would be accepted, and in what presentation format. Below is a brief description of how this task was performed: 1. Based on the author s topic preference and keyword selection, an abstract was initially reviewed by the Program Committee member responsible for that topic. If it was determined that the abstract would be more appropriately categorized under another topic, it was transferred to that topic. Sub-topic designations were helpful in assigning abstracts to the most appropriate topic. 2. Each abstract was then electronically sent to three reviewers (including a Program Committee member) who are experts in the field. Each reviewer scored the abstracts independently and without knowledge of the score given by the other reviewers. Abstracts were then assigned a score from 1 (highest priority) to 8 (reject). The best cumulative score that an abstract could obtain from all three reviewers was a 3 (1+1+1). Any conflicts were managed in the process described above. 3. In general, abstracts receiving scores within the top 8% for each topic were selected for platform (oral) presentations. The number of available oral

330 328 CMEs and CEUs presentations for a given topic was in rough proportion to the number of abstracts submitted for that topic, with some discretion given to the Program Committee to adjust for the quality of abstracts in each topic in a given year. This created a total number of 411 oral presentations. 4. The top scoring abstracts from each topic were then considered by the Program Committee for possible inclusion in the plenary session. Selection of plenary session presentations was based not only on the cumulative scores, but also on the impact of the science being presented and the balance of topics in the session. Six abstracts were finally chosen to constitute the plenary session in recognition of the speed at which new, high-impact scientific discoveries are now being made in human genetics. 5. The concurrent platform sessions were then assembled from the remaining 405 abstracts chosen for oral presentations (step 3 above, minus the 6 plenary abstracts). Within the constraints that each concurrent session has exactly nine abstracts, these platform sessions typically contain abstracts grouped by topic/approach. Some of the platform sessions are multidisciplinary sessions centered around a topic and are designed to bring together investigators interested in that topic from diverse areas of genetics. RECORDED PRESENTATIONS AVAILABLE AFTER THE MEETING Invited Sessions, Award Presentations, and the Plenary Sessions will be recorded and posted on the Web site after the meeting. These recordings are free to meeting registrants. Visit the ASHG Web site in early December to view these presentations.
