Regents' Lecture: Genomic Medicine

Lecture | January 24 | 6:30-7:30 p.m. | 105 Stanley Hall

Speaker/Performer: Dr. Thomas White, Biotech Pioneer

Sponsors: Department of Plant and Microbial Biology, College of Natural Resources

The field of medicine is changing rapidly, and Genomic Medicine is at the forefront of that change. Patients visiting the doctor nowadays say what's wrong, have a quick exam and get a prescription. But doctors now and into the future are digging deeper, and Genomic Medicine is helping them do that. If they want to know more to help people they'll turn to genomics, the study of genetics and genetic code. Each person is unique, and Genomic Medicine enables researchers to tap into that uniqueness to find a cure. Most researchers believe genomics is the key to dealing with cancer, heart disease, diabetes and more.
