Unravelling the causes of rare diseases
Matthias Begemann received his undergraduate degree in biology from the Heinrich Heine University, Düsseldorf, Germany and Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule (RWTH) Aachen. He later completed his thesis on human molecular genetics/epigenetics with a focus on imprinting disorders like Silver-Russel syndrome. He then completed his post-doctoral research at the Institute of Human Genetics, RWTH Aachen University Hospital.
In a recent webinar, Matthias provided insight into how his team leverages the power of whole exome sequencing to address some of the world’s toughest challenges with regards to rare diseases. Click on the link below to learn more about his work!
