Abstract: This presentation will offer a comprehensive overview of the advancements in genetic diagnostics over the past several decades, tracing the trajectory from early gene identification studies conducted in large families affected by sensorineural hearing loss during the 1990s, to the recent clinical implementation of genome sequencing using a targeted deafness gene panel encompassing over 285 genes. The presentation will also reflect on key insights gained throughout this period and will conclude with a forward-looking perspective underscoring the critical importance of establishing a genetic diagnosis, particularly in the context of emerging gene therapies for inner ear disorders.
