Marco L. Leung works in clinical genomics and molecular diagnostics, focusing on how genetic testing methods like exome and genome sequencing are used, validated, and reanalyzed to diagnose rare and undiagnosed diseases. His work also addresses laboratory practice issues such as testing standards, workforce training, and policy questions around regulation of genetic tests. Several papers describe discovery of specific gene variants linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer predisposition.
