German experts shared European experience of early diagnosis thereof. There was broad discussion of congenital and hereditary diseases epidemiology issues, the provision of medical and genetic care in the CIS countries, genetic and cellular approaches for personalized treatment, reproductive technologies, oncogenetics. Many reports were devoted to the problems of molecular diagnostics of various forms of hereditary pathology, including nervous system diseases, impaired vision and hearing. They also considered treatment and diagnosis of orphan diseases. Reports of Russian experts, including the FSBI RCMG researchers, have confirmed that the Russian medical genetics ranks alongside the world leaders. Many unique data presented in the reports have significantly contributed to world science. The conference was accredited in the system of continuing medical education. https://genetics21.ru/
