Understanding the Science of Disease Through Human Genome Research with Manolis Kellis

MIT CSAIL Professor Manolis Kellis discusses how the symbiotic relationship between computer science and biology helps us to better understand the complex programming language that is our DNA. Through DNA, we can find the molecular basis of the pathophysiology of a disease and take a more holistic approach to disease treatment, and one day may even predict disease. He explains the impact of human genome and epigenome research on the pharmaceutical industry in developing medicine that is both precise and personalized, dramatically transforming the therapeutic landscape.
