Molecular Autopsy for Sudden Death in the Young: Is Data Aggregation the Key?

Molecular Autopsy for Sudden Death in the Young: Is Data Aggregation the Key?

The Scripps molecular autopsy study seeks to incorporate genetic testing into the postmortem examination of cases of sudden death in the young (<45 years old). Here, we describe the results from the first 2 years of the study, which consisted of whole exome sequencing (WES) of a cohort of 50...
