Precision Medicine

The global understanding and practice of medicine is currently undergoing a revolutionary change. This shift to precision medicine means moving healthcare from a one-size-fits-all approach to a more targeted approach, where decisions are informed by each individual’s unique clinical, molecular, and lifestyle information. Working closely together with the precision medicine community, Thermo Fisher Scientific is helping advance this revolution in diagnosis and treatment. We leverage our global infrastructure and expertise to provide industry-leading capabilities, from population profiling to targeted therapeutics.

Endeavor to Improve Patient Outcomes

Endeavor to Improve Patient Outcomes

Precision oncology using next-generation sequencing (NGS) accelerates targeted therapy treatment selection and improves patient outcomes. NGS is involved throughout the development continuum for targeted treatments – from translational research to companion diagnostics testing. Here, we share stories of how NGS technology has enabled personalized oncology to improve patient outcomes.

Precision Prescribing with Pharmacogenomics

Precision Prescribing with Pharmacogenomics

The University of Pittsburgh recently partnered with Thermo Fisher Scientific to establish a new Pharmacogenomics (PGx) Center of Excellence in the School of Pharmacy that aims to discover and validate medication response predictors in patients, overcome implementation barriers, and demonstrate the value of genetic testing to guide medication prescribing in routine clinical practice.
