Not all SNP/DTCG companies are bad. What do I mean by bad? Not all SNP/DTCG companies misrepresented that which is not medically useful as medically useful.I look at Pathway and Counsyl for example. Fast followers looking to say what they do and mean what they say.Some of these DTCG tests could be clinically relevant and useful. The problem I have, is that there is no point at which I can say, "Hey I just want the clinically relevant stuff!" No ear wax please.I need that as a clinician. If I want a huge panel of say CYP450 tests, where do I go? there are some labs that do this and charge and arm and a leg. One company, who I used charged the patient thousands of dollars because insurance wouldn't pick it up.That cannot ever happen again.With the addition ...

The response reinforces the Governments commitment to genetics research and aims to maintain the UK’s position as a world-leader in associated health research, development and innovation. It clearly sets out how the Government will continue to ensure the NHS is ready for future developments and that new technologies are properly developed and translated into clinical practice Publisher: DH Size of Publication: 35p.

The Genomic Medicine Institute was launched at Silicon Valley’s El Camino Hospital together with DNA Direct to enable physicians and their patients access to leading-edge genomic services. Physician studying DNA radiograph. Image: Newscom Genomic Medicine Institute was created so that patients can be better directed in their decisions about their medical conditions, especially when it comes to using genetic tests and counseling. For example, when someone finds out she has breast cancer, one of the questions that is asked is will she pass it to her daughter? Should she tell her sisters about it? Should she have mastectomy? Should her daughter have mastectomies? Difficult quest...

But how does one know which tests to take or are appropriate for one’s condition? And what do we do after we have the test results on our hands? Can our physician help us? Image: Newscom This March, the Genomic Medicine Institute was launched at El Camino Hospital in Monterey, California in response to the emerging opportunities and challenges that the genomic era has introduced. El Camino partnered with DNA Direct to become the first community hospital to integrate genomic medical services into its routine healthcare and provide El Camino physicians and their patients with access to leading edge genomic-based technologies.

Global warming was acknowledged as real yet again, sneering antediluvian conservatives notwithstanding. The prize for Chemistry was given for discovery of reactions occurring of the surface of solids—which enabled the invention of none other than the iPOD, among others. The prize for Economics was give for something that I really don’t understand, despite my earnest efforts. And the prize for Physiology and Medicine was given for something that sounds straight out of the boxing ring: the knockout mouse. But this is something too important to dismiss with a shrug and rolled eyes. This technology is already giving us something far more important than the iPOD—it’s a huge ste...

I returned to find 174 comments awaiting moderation. Sadly, all 174 were spam, offering me the usual prescription-drugs-without-prescription, Rolex copies, Prada knockoffs, and a heaping helping of pornography (bestiality has been popular lately). This is pretty much par for the course. Whenever I see one of your real, thoughtful comments about something that’s been posted here, my heart soars. I envy some of those other blogs—mostly political—where a single, not-terribly-profound posting can elicit hundreds of comments. Ah well. Pharmacogenetics and genomic medicine are alive and well. See, for example, the Web site for the Guilford Genomic Medicine Initiative. The Guilford project [Guilford is a county in North Carolina] is...
