    Haven't finished listening to it yet. Seems almost too positive - (around 19 minutes from the start) - once you have a target (gene, pathway) then fairly straightforward to develop a drug.
    Genomics seems to be the key breakthrough - sums up why we need studies like DecodeME - to find that target (gene, pathway)---.

    AI being talked about too
