New policy briefing: electrogenetics – a new avenue in precision medicine

Our policy briefings and explainers are part of our horizon-scanning programme to identify those novel technologies showing greatest promise for health research and care. Succinct and accessible, they offer clarity on the key concepts and challenges of novel molecular and data-related technologies emerging from research.

 

The most promising of these rapid horizon-scanning analyses often develop into an in-depth research project. You can find policy briefings for these with their related reports on the publications page, under ‘Reports’. A full list of all policy briefings is on the same page, under ‘Policy briefings’.

We also produce explainers, usually as a companion to a policy briefings. Anyone looking for a primer on the potential applications of technologies such as transcriptomics, anti-sense oligonucleotide therapies, phages and more will find these a useful resource.
