Life science researchers and drug discovery scientists today work in what, in my view, will be remembered in the future as the beginning of a “golden era” where the power of genetic information is connected to a wide range of other healthcare and lifestyle data to support better understanding of disease etiology
Popular opinion is that two big shifts have changed the game for bioinformatics. The first is a technology development—single cell ‘omics—that began just over 10 years ago, the other is a more recent move to a new model of drug discovery that looks to leverage the vast amounts of human
Advances in the single-cell genomic analysis of cells and tissues, including the required computational methods, have now put systematic, high-resolution and comprehensive reference maps of all human cells within our reach. Paradigm4’s Marilyn Matz, CEO and cofounder, and Dr Zachary Pitluk, VP of Life Sciences and Healthcare, report
Peptides play important roles in human physiology. They present as intact peptides or can arise from protein degradation. Regardless of the source, peptidomics—the characterization of intact peptides in a biological sample—is fast emerging as an approach to uncover another layer in human health and disease.
