“Omics data could herald a revolution in healthcare. The analysis of rich, interconnected and longitudinal multi-omics datasets promises a better understanding of the underlying biology of human health and disease, which in turn could lead to more effective prevention, earlier and more accurate diagnoses, new treatments and better choice of treatments. Despite that promise, only a few countries have started to implement ‘omics’ to benefit patient care and healthcare innovation. Why? Because it depends upon a seamless flow of omics data and insights running from R&D to patient care and back again.”
