Why genomic healthcare data matters in the development of new therapies 

Drug Discovery World

Genomic healthcare data is critical to identify disease risk, ancestry, traits and response to medicines and aids in the development of new targeted therapies – precision medicines. In April 2003, after its launch in October 1990, the project was completed, generating the first sequence of the human genome.

Charlie has spent more than 26 years working on the human genome – 22 of which were spent at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, helping to assemble the human genome and trying to understand the function of the genes contained within it. Everything the 100,000 Genomes Project does has to be rubber-stamped by the patients”.

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.
