Precision medicine is one of the most talked about trends in healthcare. The promise is improved health outcomes and patient satisfaction, gained through an understanding of individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle. Recent commentators suggest that many of the technologies required to realize this goal already exist—and predict much wider application can be achieved by 2030.
At the heart of a precision medicine approach is data—huge amounts of data.
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.
Marilyn Matz, CEO of Paradigm4, and Zachary Pitluk, Vice President of Life Sciences at Paradigm4, explain why scalable data science platforms are key to supporting integrated analysis of single-cell genomic data sets.
Paradigm4’s REVEAL Integrative Analytics platform enables Alnylam Pharmaceuticals to discover novel, genetically-validated drug targets from population scale biobank genotype-phenotype datasets and underlies the extraordinary pace and productivity of Alnylam’s RNAi therapeutics pipeline.
