  • Ambry is part of ClinGen PTEN Expert panel which was formed to optimize the 2015 ACMG-AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for clinical interpretation of variants identified in PTEN
  • Optimized guidelines will facilitate accurate and consistent classification of variants in PTEN across clinical and research laboratories and are therefore very important for patient care.
