About the session

Watch the on-demand session from ASHG 2026 exploring how single cell sequencing is helping researchers uncover the biological mechanisms behind disease-associated genetic variants.

The Molecular Mechanisms Cluster (MMC), a research program from Professor Kenneth Baillie’s lab at the University of Edinburgh, maps how primary human tissues respond to disease-relevant stimuli at the cellular level, linking genetic variation to the molecular pathways driving disease.

This session also looks at how single cell technologies are scaling to support studies of this kind, from early-stage discovery to population-level research.
