The Aspen Institute2015.1.8---DNA测序技术
發佈日期：2015年1月8日
Understanding the “blueprint of life” is the key to applying technology to biology. Computing power and DNA sequencing have opened an entire new field in medicine, making it possible to customize treatment and combat disease based on personal genetic profiles. With the dramatically falling cost of sequencing, it is easier to perscribe preventative medicine based on known disease risk. Pairing an engineer with a cancer doctor, this conversation will explore new healthcare technologies and touch on issues ranging from a complex system view of health to ethics and policy. See what happens when different fields of science converge
了解“生命的蓝图”的关键在于将技术应用于生物学。计算能力和DNA测序已在医学上开设了一个全新的领域，使得能够基于个人遗传图谱定制治疗和防治疾病。随着测序的显着下降的成本，很容易根据已知疾病的风险perscribe预防医学。配对工程师与癌症的医生，这次谈话将探索新的医疗技术，触及问题，从健康的一个复杂的系统，以道德和政策。当看到科学的不同领域的融合会发生什么。
