Cancer treatment has entered a new era. Years ago, many people with lung cancer received similar treatments because doctors had limited information about the unique biology of each person’s tumor. Today, medicine is moving toward personalized care. Doctors can study a patient’s cancer in much greater detail and choose treatments that are more closely matched […] The post Why Many Lung Cancer Pati…
The development of personalized medicine depends on collaboration between multiple stakeholders, who must navigate uncertainty while shaping expectations of future value.
Scientists identified an autoimmune mechanism linked to a major IBD risk gene, opening the door to targeted diagnosis and personalized therapies for thousands of patients. For decades, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been treated as a single disorder, even though patients often experience dramatically different symptoms, disease courses, and responses to therapy. A new study [...]
Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease whose worldwide prevalence in adults has more than doubled since 1990, demanding a shift from reactive treatment towards early, personalised prevention. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides a methodological pathway for this shift by integrating heterogeneous, longitudinal evidence—genomic, metabolomic, electronic health record (EHR), wearable Internet-…
Drs. Cruchaga and Karch are some of the Washington University investigators that received funding from Centene to perform molecular phenotyping of Alzheimer’s cases to identify novel molecular biomarkers and the identification of novel therapeutically targets. Specifically we plan to develop a personalized medicine approach to understand the effects of Alzheimer’s disease risk genes by combining …
Do you ever wonder how long it would take to burn off that piece of cake? Or how much cardio you need each day? This information is largely dependent on a person's DNA, so even though there's a lot of information out there - it isn't necessarily all useful.
In an effort to make health and wellness easier for consumers, IBM's Watson supercomputer has teamed up with a DNA testing company called Pat…
