Clinical biomarker are specific characteristics that can be measured in a clinical setting to indicate normal or abnormal functions. Analysis of clinical biomarkers can be used to diagnose a disease, assess the efficacy of an intervention, or plan an appropriate course of treatment.
Precision medicine requires success in two intertwined aspects: precision therapy and personalized medicine. Precision therapy is being able to effectively treat the right disease; to have th...
Wolframin is a major protein of the endoplasmic reticulum, it is expressed in most tissues and clinical data demonstrate its significant connection to diabetes mellitus. L...
Human breast tumors have been shown to exhibit extensive inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. While recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed us to deconvolute this heterogeneity,...
Imaging-based techniques have traditionally been restricted to the diagnosis and staging of cancer. But technological advances are moving imaging modalities into the heart of patient care. Im...
The advent of personalized medicine employing molecular targeted therapies has markedly changed the treatment of cancer in the past 10 years. Although tumor tissue biopsy-based genotyping is...
This talk will provide an overview of Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) chemical imaging as a powerful and versatile method for obtaining information about CNS tissues. By combining imaging a...
The greatest health epidemic of our time is cancer. Deaths from cancer worldwide outnumber the combined deaths from HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria by a wide margin. There are at least 100...
A century and a half after we first probed heritability, we risk forgetting one of Mendel's own basic findings, in rushing to broaden clinical genomics to lifelong care for all. Embracing...
Precision medicine requires understanding the mechanistic basis of complex disorders, and to precisely manipulate these mechanisms to better human health. This is partly enabled by the recent...
While next-generation sequencing has proven to be a very useful tool in basic research, two major hurdles remain for its broad adoption in the clinical research setting: lack of seamless work...
The advent of the microarray technology in 2000 has paved the way for advanced translational research methods that use molecular markers such as microRNA, proteins, metabolites and copy numbe...
Cell death is involved in diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration, and also has a natural role in the development of multicellular organisms. Although apoptosis has been well defined, a...
Every day, vast amounts of healthcare data are collected from clinical trials as well as real world medical visits on patient treatment regimens and subsequent clinical outcomes. This big dat...
On January 20, 2015, President Obama announced the Precision Medicine Initiative® (PMI) (link is external) in his State of the Union address. Through advances in research, technology and...
One of the primary goals of precision medicine is the aggregation and interpretation of deep, longitudinal patient-specific data in the context of the digital universe of information, using a...
A number of recently publications have heralded the advent of Precision Medicine in Oncology, where next generation sequencing technology, other ’omics technologies, serial biopsies, so...
Understanding disease at a deeper level so that it can be targeted more precisely is the essence of precision medicine. Rapid technological advance, particularly in genomics and sensor-based...
In December 2012 the UK Prime Minister announced the 100,000 genomes project to introduce whole genome sequencing for treatment into the UK National Health Service (NHS) o...
Precision medicine promises a more effective approach to disease treatment and management. It is based on analyzing mutations of disease samples to unlock mechanisms of disease development an...
Personalised Healthcare is essential to AstraZeneca’s approach to drug development and is adopted by more than 80% of drug products in clinical development. Selection of the right patie...

With an increasing number of biomarkers and, often, limited availability of biopsy material, there is a growing need for multiplexed...
As hospitals and healthcare systems move toward value-based care, new management systems are needed to measure and improve clinical processes. This presents both an opportunity and a ch...
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for accurate assembly, alignment, and analysis of sequence data from all major next-generation sequencing platforms, supporting key workflows in...
In November of 2013 the AHA/ACA jointly proposed new guidelines for the management of hypercholesterolemia, the first full update in over a decade. The charge was to create evidence bas...
