Dyson has called for more support for science teachers and tax breaks for high-tech firms to conduct research to encourage an economy where Britain designs, makes and sells.Among the report's key recommendations are greater financial and regulatory freedom for universities to promote investment in science and engineering, public-private institutes to help translate research into commercial opportunities and more generous tax relief for investors in start-up and established high-tech firms.David Cameron summarised "I think we have a choice where we go on as we are borrowing money from the Chinese to buy their products, or we can say 'no - wait - this is actually a count...

Commentary crossposted @nexthealth.nl.2. This is a long post. To skip the running panel transcript, scroll down the page for thoughts on the current state of consumer-direct genomics and where the sector may be headed. Matthew Holt is up next at the Ronald Reagan International Center in DC (July 6, 2008), where the US DHHS has arranged today’s “Understanding the Needs of Consumers in the Use of Genome-based Health Information Services” workshop. Michael Cowan, Bearing Point and former Navy Surgeon General – opens the panel with a bang, comparing the healthcare sea change taking place courtesy of genomic advances to the recent release of Manhattan Project data. This area of medical investigation is high-impact, no doubt about it. To Matthew’s left on...

Later this month, I will be taping an interview with the well-known Esther Dyson of EDventure Holdings.  For those of you who are not aware of who Dyson is, here’s an excerpt from a recent Health 2.0 blog post noting that she has signed on as an advisor for the next Health 2.0 conference:   (Source: HealthCareVox) HealthCareVox blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1087708 Tue, 11 Dec 2007 17:46:24 +0100 1087708 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=915411&cid=t_338064_131_f&fid=35743&url=http%3A%2F%2Fthegenesherpa.blogspot.com%2F2007%2F09%2Fabout-helix-health.html Well, I have been getting alot of questions regarding our personalized medical practice on Park Avenue in New York City. I have been reluctant to tell everyone, but I figure that I might as well let everyone in on our "secret"My philosophy is the power of genomics should empower patients and providers. Together as a team we can prevent some horrible diseases and avoid some horrible adverse drug reactions. How do we do this? We take the skills from a multidisciplinary team and identify risk. We feel that the most powerful genomic tool out there is family history (Sorry Hsien). This has been validated over and over again in epidemiological studies. In fact when Mike Leavitt indicate in his foreward of his Personalized Health Care report"One part of the foundation for such a change is our rap...
