Baylor Genetics

Rare disease diagnosis can be complex, but advances in multiomic testing are helping families get answers faster. Christine Eng, MD, Chief Medical Officer & Chief Quality Officer at Baylor Genetics, spoke with SEQanswers about how genome and exome sequencing, RNA-seq, metabolomics, long-read sequencing, and other emerging technologies are transforming what is possible for patients. Behind every test is a patient and a family seeking answers they can trust. Baylor Genetics is proud to bring greater precision to some of the most challenging diagnostic cases.

Genomic testing is gaining recognition for its role in shortening the diagnostic odyssey for children with developmental delay and intellectual disability. In part one of a Contemporary Pediatrics feature, our Chief Medical Officer & Chief Quality Officer, Christine Eng, MD, explains why the traditional “one test at a time” approach often leaves families waiting too long for answers. Our Whole Genome and Whole Exome Sequencing are increasingly used as first-line tools, delivering faster insights and a better chance of finding the underlying cause of a child’s condition. If initial results are not diagnostic, the data can be reanalyzed as new knowledge emerges, providing ongoing clinical value.

Baylor Genetics is proud to support the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in a national initiative to expand access to pharmacogenomic and germline genetic testing for Veterans. With this collaboration, we are providing precision diagnostic tests, including hereditary cancer and pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing, to equip VA providers with the genetic insights needed to personalize care. These insights can help tailor treatment plans for mental health conditions such as depression and PTSD, minimize medication side effects, and identify inherited cancer risks to guide proactive, preventive care. Baylor Genetics is committed to advancing personalized healthcare for Veterans and their families. Both PGx and germline cancer testing are available to all veterans.
