Abstract:
Clinical metagenomics (CMg), referring to as the application of metagenomic sequencing of clinical samples in order to recover clinically-relevant information, has been rapidly evolving these last years. Following this trend, we held the third International Conference on Clinical Metagenomics (ICCMg3) in Geneva in October 2018. During the two days of the conference, several aspects of CMg were addressed, which we propose to summarize in the present manuscript. During this ICCMg3, we kept on following the progresses achieved worldwide on clinical metagenomics, but also this year in clinical genomics. Besides, the use of metagenomics in cancer diagnostic and management was addressed. Some new challenges have also been raised such as the way to report clinical (meta)genomics output to clinicians and the pivotal place of ethics in this expanding field.
