Why genomic healthcare data matters in the development of new therapies 

Drug Discovery World

From a general healthcare perspective, access to this sort of data is invaluable, but this is particularly noteworthy in that DNA tests have historically been limited in these regions on account of cost and availability of practitioners, services and resources. References .

A new dawn of the genomic age: five areas set to be transformed in 2023

pharmaphorum

In March, the collaborative T2T consortium published the first complete telomere-to-telomere sequence of the human genome, filling in the last 8% of the 3 billion base pairs that make up our DNA. Understanding individual drug reactions and metabolism Pharmacogenomics is emerging as an important area.

Q&A: Gene therapy opportunities from long-read sequencing 

Drug Discovery World

Visualising the whole genome is especially useful when sequencing new organisms, or stretches of DNA with many repeats or translocations, which are difficult to see from short sections of DNA code. The post Q&A: Gene therapy opportunities from long-read sequencing appeared first on Drug Discovery World (DDW).
