I think mainly of personalized medicine. It treats patients based on their individual genome, giving patients a specific and unique treatment. It is a fairly new type of medicine, and we hope to be able to make it more possible in more situations. Specifically, we hope to see a pattern and help create an algorithm that will allow the effect of specific mutations to be better predicted. Thus, when they are seen in actual patients, patients can be better treated.
Very interesting topic! Are there any specific areas of medicine that will benefit more from this kind of research?
