Personalized hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity
Patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) have been transplanted for more than 50 years. Many long-term survivors have ongoing medical issues showing the need for further improvements in how hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is performed

Syndromic Inherited Retinal Diseases: Genetic, Clinical and Diagnostic Aspects
Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), which are among the most common genetic diseases in humans, define a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders. Over 80 forms of syndromic IRDs have been described.

Utility of Gene Panels for the Diagnosis of Inborn Errors of Metabolism in a Metabolic Reference Center [PDF]
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have been proposed as a first-line test for the diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism (IEM), a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders with overlapping or nonspecific phenotypes. Over a 3-year period,
