Medical data is personal information related to the diagnosis, treatment, and overall healthcare of a patient and can include details like demographic details, drugs prescribed, laboratory tests, and health insurance. Medial data is sometimes referred to as an electronic medical record (EMR) and it is protected under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).
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,...
Technological advances have made genomic sequencing more affordable, efficient, and available. Questions related to the implementation and effects of large-scale sequencing in healthcare have...
Emerging technologies facilitate basic science research, but their value in regulatory applications requires rigorous assessment and consensus within the research community. Next-generation s...
We are at a time where traditionally risk-adverse health care systems and their IT architecture are confronted with the deluge of data at a massive scale and tremendous variability. In many H...
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...
In this time of incredible promise for genomic medicine, the Genomes2People (G2P) Research Program in Translational Genomics and Health Outcomes, directed by Robert C. Green, MD, MPH, is crea...
It has been estimated that every human being carries ~20 rare “natural human gene knockouts”-DNA variants in protein-coding regions of the genome that partially or completely inac...
Cervical cancer screening has been the 20th century poster child for preventative screening. This presentation is a gynecologist’s perspective on its continuing evolution –b...
Pathology departments are under significant pressure to meet the demands of a precise medicine environment where general phenotypic attributes are no longer sufficient for accurately defining...
Cancer remains the second leading cause of death in the United States. Most tumors arise from a myriad of genetic changes that dysregulate cell growth and prompt survival. Ident...
Given the challenges of replicating Parkinson’s disease in animal models, returning to models that are human-based and highly clinically characterized may provide the most successful pa...
Impulse control disorders (ICDs), also known as behavioural addictions, are common in the general population and can have marked consequences. ICDs can also commonly occur with exposure...

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...
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...
Optimising experimental design needs a sound understanding of basic principles and a good appreciation of a range of designs and when to use them. More than ten years ago it was clear t...
Working with animals carries legal, scientific and ethical responsibilities. These responsibilities merge as we strive to humanely use the least number of animals necessary to provide t...
The reproducibility of animal studies is now critical to ensure that limited resources are used wisely and that efforts yield useable knowledge. At this time, IACUCs and other similar a...
A number of elements come into the mix when trying to optimise experimental design. Among these are having clear objectives, setting up valid comparisons, knowing how to avoid bias during the...
Surgerized animals play a crucial role in preclinical research aimed at drug and medical device discovery into treatments for humans. When implementing new in-house surgical models to perform...
Reproducibility refers to the ability of an experiment or study to be replicated, either by the same person or group or by others working independently. With regard to scientific public...
