Genomic Landscape In only a year or two, the cost of determining a person’s complete DNA blueprint is expected to fall below $1,000. 30,000 human genomes sequenced by years end, number will rise to millions in a few years.
Biomarkers: Clinical Surrogates Informative, reliable, minimally-invasive, low cost, ... Informative, minimally invasive, low cost,...
How Does (my) Research Fit in? Major challenges are to: Discover, Interpret, Validate, & Commercialize new biomakers in the lab, clinic and marketplace
