🥂Congratulations to all three winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine! Great to see that two former Max Planck Society researchers, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel, have been honored, and that part of the prize also goes to a colleague from Berlin’s scientific community (Hegemann). #NobelPrize #Berlin

Structural variants and tandem repeats are individual differences in the human genome. In two new papers the Vingron lab presents bioinformatics tools that could help identify pathogenic variants more easily, thereby facilitating the genetic diagnosis of diseases.
