Transforming Drug Development with Genomics
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) can help pharmaceutical and biotech researchers better understand the genetic variants associated with various diseases. These insights can support the development of targeted therapeutics and multi-analyte tumor analysis. NGS also opens the door for discovery of novel methods to monitor cancer treatment and recurrence.

Drug Discovery through Gene Regulation
Targeted drug discovery has traditionally focused on inhibiting or modulating the function of abnormal proteins. But diseases could also potentially be treated in the future by controlling gene expression. In this podcast episode, Dr. Eric R. Olson of Syros Pharmaceuticals explains how epigenomics is enabling a paradigm shift in drug discovery.
