Interpreting human genetic variation with in vivo zebrafish assays

Rapid advances and cost erosion in exome and genome analysis of patients with both rare and common genetic disorders have accelerated gene discovery and illuminated fundamental biological mechanisms. The thrill of discovery has been accompanied, however, with the sobering appreciation that human genomes are burdened with a large number of rare and ultra rare variants, thereby posing a significant challenge in dissecting both the effect of such...
