Geneticist Dr Charles Steward has spent his career studying the human genome – but his work became much more personal when his children were diagnosed with severe neurological diseases. Charlie told pharmaphorum how his search for a genetic cause has led him to straddle the divide between scientist and patient advocate.

The cost of testing per human genome in 2006 was approximately $14 million , and in less than two decades, an average consumer-purchased genetic test costs $100. The same is becoming true for the healthcare industry, and one of the first major breakthroughs in the area was the 100,000 Genomes Project.

During this period, Nobel prize-winning German scientist Paul Ehrlich developed his lock-key hypothesis of molecules that specifically bind to cell receptors. Building on the success of cytokine-based immunotherapies, scientists continued to seek other areas where the immune system could be leveraged against tumours.

The COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) database, operated by the Wellcome Sanger Institute, grew out of the work of the Cancer Genome Project and has been gathering data on mutations associated with specific cancers for almost 17 years. The post COSMIC database matches drugs to cancer mutations appeared first on.

Hong Kong scientists are reporting the case of a healthy man in his 30s who became reinfected with coronavirus four and a half months after his first bout. They say genome sequencing shows the two strains of the virus are “clearly different”, making it the world’s first proven case of reinfection. Image copyright.

Nutrigenomics is the science studying the relationship between human genome, nutrition and health. In part, the success of the Human Genome Project has also paved a path for the novel concept of nutrigenomics. It further highlights the variation in the genome of patients and identify the sites of metabolic weakness.

CRISPR works as genetic scissors to edit parts of the genome. The scientists on the advisory committee were particularly focused on the CRISPR gene editing technology itself and how companies like Vertex that are developing CRISPR-based therapies are ensuring their treatments are not making off-target gene edits.
