Share of Cost, Three innovations offer hope for enhanced drug safety in the future
Saturday, Nov. 7th 2015 6:29 AM
Three new innovations in drug development and health monitoring could help to meet this challenge. These innovations are:
* Electronic medical records, which are increasingly being used to store patient data and are a valuable resource for scientists;
* Informatics: computer-based statistical tools that can analyse data from medical records and other sources, such as academic studies and even social media, to pick out hidden trends in adverse drug reactions;
* Personalised medicine, in which genetic information is used to target drugs at very specific patient populations.
