Who benefits most

Genomic medicine relies on powerful technologies such as Next Generation Sequencing of a patient’s DNA and data analysis using Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithms. These approaches are most effective in diagnosing diseases that are difficult or impossible to diagnose using clinical methods alone. Examples of such diseases are listed below.

  • Individuals with autism and autism spectrum disorders (ASD)
  • Children and adults with Asperger’s syndrome
  • Children with learning disorders and/or
    • Intellectual disability
    • Special educational needs
    • Attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity (ADD or ADHD)
    • Psychiatric disorders (e.g. childhood schizophrenia, bipolar disorder)
    • Speech and language problems
    • Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs)
    • Endocrine abnormalities
  • Individuals with epilepsy (seizure disorder)
  • Adults with memory problems, early onset dementia
  • Individuals of all ages who have no working diagnosis despite numerous referrals to specialists
  • Patients for whom medications do not work or cause significant side effects.

DNA sequencing provides information about individual variations in drug response genes and genes responsible for drug metabolism. Using this information for medication selection significantly shortens drug response times, minimizes side effects and achieves better treatment results.

When NGS is not so useful…

Genomic medicine tools and principles are not intended to predict future diseases, personality traits, a baby’s intellect, athletic performance or similar traits. While these characteristics do depend on genetics, they are significantly influenced by environmental factors.
