The cost of testing per human genome in 2006 was approximately $14 million , and in less than two decades, an average consumer-purchased genetic test costs $100. The same is becoming true for the healthcare industry, and one of the first major breakthroughs in the area was the 100,000 Genomes Project.

While we have made a lot of progress in targeted therapeutics by identifying molecular tumour drivers that define patient subsets, genomics has not quite produced the same level of understanding for tumour-immune biology. This is a complex problem because it involves both tumour biology, genomics, and immune biology.

The power of leveraging clinical data to decipher disease mechanisms and fuel drug discovery has rapidly grown in the era of genomics and personalized medicine. Biobanks are used for the coordination of high-yield patient sample collection. Generation of strong research dataset cohorts must begin with high-quality clinical samples.
