Improved Pharmacogenomics with Adaptive Sampling

Tonight I watched the London Calling 2023 session entitled “Advancing targeted haplotyping in pharmacogenomics using adaptive sampling.” Koen Deserranno from Ghent University in Belgium spoke about their research. They are a pharmacist by training and are interested in pharmacogenomics (PGx): personalization of drug therapy based on genomic sequences of the individual. Deserranno spoke about how […]
