Description:
The “INTERCEPT-MDS” project aims to explore the fascinating concept of disease interception – a treatment of disease in its early stages by selectively removing altered cells – in myelodysplastic syndromes. To do this, the consortium sets out to overcome key challenges: 1) identification of few altered disease cells among many healthy ones and 2) development of therapies specifically targeting disease-driving cells. GenomeScan, as a partner in the consortium, will provide expertise in NGS, Bio-IT and single-cell sequencing.
