The Promises and Pitfalls of Omics in Precision Medicine

The Promises and Pitfalls of Omics in Precision Medicine

Omics techniques that rapidly analyze large amounts of genomic and other data from an individual cell, tissue or patient could greatly benefit precision medicine, but not without challenges. A UR CTSI-led team explored how to apply these techniques to precision medicine and revolutionize patient diagnosis and therapeutic interventions.

We Can Grow a New Ear, But How Do We Regulate It?

We Can Grow a New Ear, But How Do We Regulate It?

Technologies like 3D printing hold a lot of promise for precision medicine - even allowing scientists to grow new ears for children. As these technologies quickly advance, so does the need to regulate them. Regulatory scientists at the UR CTSI have led an effort to identify and address regulatory issues around these technologies so they can be safely applied to precision medicine.
