Knowledge Nugget Series

Since its inception, NCC has developed and maintained the ACMG ACT Sheets and Algorithms (learn more about the ACMG ACT Sheets here). The ACMG ACT Sheets are a clinical decision support tool to help non-genetics providers understand more about specific genetic conditions found through genetic screening or testing. To make these excellent one-page resources a more active educational resource, NCC publishes Knowledge Nuggets for specific ACMG ACT Sheets. Each Knowledge Nugget is five to nine minutes and provides an animated walk-through of the ACMG ACT Sheet. Click on the one of the conditions below to access the modules and associate materials.
