Breakthroughs in gene therapy are only possible with an exact understanding of the genetic underpinnings of disease. To develop safe and effective gene therapies, researchers need confidence that genomic data is both complete and accurate. For years now the UK has been somewhat of a leader in genomic research.

We previously conducted a hypothesis-free study using genotype data from the UK Biobank, which resulted in the first mechanism-based stratification of endometriosis patients. Genomic medicine has therefore had limited impact on improving diagnosis or treatment in endometriosis and other chronic diseases.
