Show Notes
On today’s episode Dr. David Kelly is joined by Nick Leventis, senior healthcare analyst for the Innovators strategy at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, to discuss the genomic health revolution. Healthcare spending now amounts to almost 18% of GDP and chronic conditions are on the rise while baby boomers are just beginning to retire. The need for high quality care is becoming more and more important.

This technology has been key in the creation of a viable and dynamic Covid-19 vaccine, but it has also heralded advancements in sequencing and machine learning, liquid biopsy, proteomics, etc.
