The Pioneers in Genomics Education Program is an effort to bring cutting edge industry genomics applications and tools into leading educational curriculum with an aim to reduce gaps between industrial discovery and basic research. Moreover, the Program helps to foster linkages with select leaders in education and assist in their training endeavor. The Program also creates a network and facilitate collaboration between participants of this Program. This Program also aims to give affordable access to cutting edge bioinformatics tools to current and future researchers and scientists in industry and academia.

"What I can say is that structural changes, and in particular CNVs, may indeed be responsible for a lot of sporadic disease given the fact that locus specific mutation rates for CNV mutations can be 100 to 10,000 times more frequent than locus specific mutation rates for single base pair changes or SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms). It may also be that the nervous system in particular is more susceptible to copy number changes than other biochemical pathways, or networks of interacting proteins in different physiological systems, within the body."
