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.

A new study led by Medical Research Council-funded researchers from UCL has found that tailoring the analysis of whole genome sequencing to individual patients could double the diagnostic rates of rare diseases. . It also detected potential disease-causing variants in a further 3.9% Context . The study . of patients. .

Geneticist Dr Charles Steward has spent his career studying the human genome – but his work became much more personal when his children were diagnosed with severe neurological diseases. Charlie told pharmaphorum how his search for a genetic cause has led him to straddle the divide between scientist and patient advocate.

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.

Cancer is a genetic disease, caused by certain changes in the way that genes control cell function, such as how they grow and divide. Beyond these potential indications, one area that represents a large amount of research and potential is for CRISPR technology to provide new solutions in oncology. Why cancer?
