Personalized Medicine: The Future of Genomic Sequencing
California Academy of Sciences - California Academy of Sciences
Nadav Ahituv, assistant professor in the Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences at the University of California, San Francisco, discusses the future of genomic sequencing.He explores the current methods for analyzing the human genome, and describes the potential benefits of knowing exactly how our DNA affects our health.We are in the midst of a renaissance in the biological sciences, which is spurring the growth of brand new fields like functional and comparative genomics. These new fields are revealing novel insights into evolutionary biology, medicine, developmental biology and many other areas, transforming the way scientists look at life.Join the California Academy of Sciences to learn about genomics, hear about compelling current research, and explore the future of this rapidly advancing field.
