RPT-INSIGHT-How DNA sequencing is transforming the hunt for new drugs
2015-05-14 00:37:39| Biotech - Topix.net
Drug manufacturers have begun amassing enormous troves of human DNA in hopes of significantly shortening the time it takes to identify new drug candidates, a move some say is transforming the development of medicines. The efforts will help researchers identify rare genetic mutations by scanning large databases of volunteers who agree to have their DNA sequenced and to provide access to detailed medical records.
