Abstract

Human Genetics Unit is a vital department in a hospital. Therefore in the 2016 GSOC this project was selected as a GSOC project. Taking it to the next phase should be the goal of this project. That includes fixing the image upload feature in the data collection form in the human genetics module.

The other objective is to build model to predict genetically transmitted diseases using previous data. This would require more than the GSOC period but this can be used as a starting point for a model.
