Hey @agmoore,
wonderful article again. And again so fruity & vivid. I really appreciate this.

The topic you are talking about is indeed a huge problem I think. Numerous defects or health problems are related to problems which are hard to spot. In your case, someone would make a mere gene sequencing with the conclusion that everything should work. Only with further characterizations, the real problem could be found. In many cases, this wouldn't be the case. The consequence: A life in pain! In my company, we try to offer various approaches: gene sequencing, the reaction of the cells, metabolic tests, cytokine panels... Nevertheless, for many people, it is not affordable. We need a health system which promotes cutting-edge tools in a broad range. This, in turn, could reduce the costs for the public health system. Nonetheless, I expect it will take between 10 and 30 years until we achieve a full acceptance of these innovations. Until then: Good luck to everyone.

Chapper
