Thanks for these Marion, very good pieces. I see this part from the Tribune piece – ” could mine the data, for instance, to determine whether the chemotherapy drug Cisplatin is associated with specific genetic mutations, Pommier said.”
If they were able to do that with CC then that alone would be a big help would it not to patients with CC.
Lots of work going on with genome sequencing isn’t there and fingers crossed much good will come from it for us all! Here at Dundee University they recently opened a Genomic Sequencing Unit, in June of this year.
