Genomics and precision medicine: The new frontier for microsimulation
“Genomics requires a form of modelling that can capture individual genetic differences and responses to therapy – a purpose to which microsimulation is eminently suited.”
This quote, from a seminal review paper by Professors Deborah Schofield and Rupendra Shrestha of Macquarie University, pioneers in applying microsimulation techniques for modelling the costs and benefits of genomic medicine, formed the basis for a fascinating recent discussion with the HealthLumen team, on the role of microsimulation modelling techniques in precision medicine.
