How Genomics Is Changing Medicine
Technological innovation has dramatically reduced the cost of genome sequencing. It is now affordable to sequence DNA from people, cancers and pathogens, and this will have major implications for health.
Professor Patrick Maxwell has been centrally involved in a series of discoveries that have revealed how changes in oxygenation are sensed, and how genetic alterations cause kidney disease. He holds the Wellcome Trust Senior Investigator Award and NIHR Senior Investigator Award.
Professor Maxwell is a principal investigator in the Cambridge Institute for Medical Research. He is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and the Academy of Medical Sciences, in the UK.
