Provide the family with complete and accurate information about genetic disorders.
Promoting informed decisions
Clarifying the family's options available treatment and prognosis
Decreasing the incidence of genetic disorders
Reducing the impact of the disorders Big data challenge
Clinical genetic testing has exponentially expanded
An overwhelming amount of patient variants
With high variability in pathogenicity and heterogeneous phenotypes. How do I learn about a genetic conditions?

An international point-of-care resource for busy clinicians, provides clinically relevant and medically actionable information for inherited conditions in a standardized journal-style format, covering diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling for patients and their families
Each chapter in GeneReviews is written by one or more experts on the specific condition or disease and goes through a rigorous editing and peer review process before being published online.
GeneReviews currently comprises 765 chapters.
The two general formats for GeneReviews are: chapters focused on a single gene or phenotype (~95%) and overviews summarizing genetic causes of common conditions (e.g., deafness and hearing loss, Alzheimer disease) (~5%). 1- Google search (X GeneReviews) Gene Reviews by Title
