Health systems, also known as healthcare systems, are large organized groups of doctors, nurses, healthcare professionals, institutions, and resources. These entities work together to deliver health care services to a community. Effective health systems aim to improve the patients experience, enhance the health of the community, and reduce healthcare costs.
Medical genetics is a specialty of medicine that encompasses patients at all ages (prenatal, pediatric, adult), as well as all organ systems. As the genetic causes of more diseases have been ...
Maturing neural circuits are dramatically shaped by the environment, but this timing varies across brain regions and plasticity declines with age. Focusing on cellular/molecular mechanisms un...
Schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder are all uniquely human conditions. Psychiatric conditions include alterations in several different and overlapping domains (NIMH RDoC). Each...
The adolescent brain has been forged by evolution to have different features than those of a child or an adult, but it is not broken or defective. Phenomenal ability to adapt to environ...
A key goal in psychiatry is to build new diagnostic, therapeutic and translational tools and capacity to reduce the impact of emerging mental disorders in young people on survival, distress,...
Schizophrenia (Sz) is a major mental disorder that affects ~1% of the population. Although traditional models of Sz focused on dopaminergic dysfunction, newer models increasingly implic...
There is a growing appreciation of the relationship between gut microbiota, and the host in maintaining homeostasis in health and predisposing to disease. Bacterial colonisation of the gut pl...
Traditional models of basal ganglia disorders are grounded in the assumption that network dysfunction is driven by alterations in intrinsic excitability of striatal neurons. Recent work has c...

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...
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...
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...
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...
