Genotyping: the process of determining differences in the genetic make-up (genotype) of an individual by examining the individual's DNA sequence using biological assays and comparing it to another individual's sequence or a reference sequence. It reveals the alleles an individual has inherited from their parents. Traditionally genotyping is the use of DNA sequences to define biological populations by use of molecular tools. It does not usually involve defining the genes of an individual.
The NIH put Precision Medicine on the map as a revolutionary way to manage disease, delivering the right treatment, to the right patient, at the right time. But what does Precision Medicine r...
Most cancer therapies have highly variable activity from one patient to another, with only a fraction of patients’ cancers responding to a given treatment. In many types of cancer, comb...
It has been noted by many in the community that for Precision Medicine to become a transformative reality, the underlying DNA and RNA sequence data have to become more precise. In my talk, I...
Virtually all tumors are genetically heterogeneous, containing subclonal populations of cells that are defined by distinct mutations. Subclones can have unique phenotypes that influence disea...
