The Evolving Integration of NGS Data into EMRs: Transforming Clinical Research and Precision Medicine
Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a technology that allows the rapid sequencing of entire genomes, targeted regions, or specific sets of genes. It represents a significant advancement that enables the parallel sequencing of millions of DNA fragments simultaneously. NGS can be used for a variety of applications, including whole-genome sequencing (WGS), whole-exome sequencing (WES), targeted gene… Continue reading The Evolving Integration of NGS Data into EMRs: Transforming Clinical Research and Precision Medicine
Leveraging Natural History of Disease Studies for Integrated Evidence Generation Plans and Regulatory Success
Natural history of disease studies are intended to track the course of a disease by identifying demographic, genetic, environmental, and other variables (e.g., treatments, concomitant medications) that correlate with the disease’s development and outcomes. Natural history of disease studies play a crucial role in integrated evidence generation plans, especially for rare diseases and conditions where… Continue reading Leveraging Natural History of Disease Studies for Integrated Evidence Generation Plans and Regulatory Success
