11 July 2018

The launch symposium took place yesterday for the

ucl.ac.uk/individualised-medicine">UCL Institute for Precision Medicine.

The new institute will bring together UCL and its partner hospitals with industry to advance new medicines and medical technology innovations.

Precision medicine, sometimes called personalised medicine, is a move away from a 'one size fits all' approach to treatment. It used an individual's genetic profile to guide decisions about the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease.
