Everything the 100,000 Genomes Project does has to be rubber-stamped by the patients”. At the time, the Sanger Institute was working on the Deciphering Developmental Disorders study (DDD), which looked at the approximately 1-2% of the genome that is responsible for making proteins in patients with rare diseases.

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.
