Ben Hargreaves finds that the vast amount of genetic data that exists today could help provide a faster, more targeted way of developing new drug candidates. The logical extension to this kind of approach is treating individual patients, with their individual genetic makeup.

In 2016, scientists behind a study called the Resilience Project analysed genetic data from 589,000+ people and found 13 adults who carried genetic variants that should have resulted in serious – even deadly – childhood disease, but who were apparently healthy. Giving participants something in return.

Biobanks are used for the coordination of high-yield patient sample collection. Moreover, biobanks are no longer passive biorepositories for accrual of samples and serve a more utilitarian function in identifying and coordinating specific research cohorts for longitudinal and prospective studies.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and University College London in the UK have found how air pollution can trigger the activation of cells with existing genetic mutations to form cancer. Now, scientists have found a mechanism that may help explain how pollutants in the air can turn cells cancerous. “We
