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

pharmaphorum

2022 was a banner year for genomics. 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.

Junk DNA: How the dark genome is changing RNA therapies

Drug Discovery World

Over the next two decades, it is quite possible that most new drugs approved could be based on some form of RNA, whether it be through its delivery or targeting the molecule itself. In actuality, the protein-coding portion of our genome is comparable in identity and number with the humble fruit fly or worm.

Where is the drug discovery expertise happening in the UK?

Drug Discovery World

The United Kingdom has established itself as a hub for drug discovery expertise worldwide. There is a range of reasons why this area has become focal point for drug discovery, one of which is the fact that it encompasses the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, two of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world.

The future of genomic medicine: can it fulfil its promises?

pharmaphorum

Here he gives us a deeper look at how genomic medicine is evolving and the barriers that are preventing it from reaching its full potential. I saw this, in particular, with the finishing of the human genome,” says Charlie. “At In reality, finishing the human genome was the first step of what is a long journey.”.

The Biotech Effect

Pharmaceutical Technology

. “The inherent advantages of biopharma are that it allows you to pursue therapies against targets that are not small molecule therapies, for example by targeting protein-protein interactions and targeting GPCRs (G-protein coupled receptors),” he says. “Biotechnology has exploded across the industry.

The era of precision neuroscience

Drug Discovery World

To find new ways of diagnosing and treating complex diseases we first must understand the mechanisms underpinning their key pathological drivers, how these relate to different patient subgroups, and which drugs might be useful in ameliorating their effects – this is the basis of precision neuroscience. This is wholly unsurprising.
