Welcome to the next episode of the Personalized Medicine Podcast. On this show we typically talk about science and technology driving the progress in personalized medicine. But the policy side of things and patient access are equally important.

We are happy to welcome on our podcast Christopher Wells, the Vice President of Public Affairs at the Personalized Medicine Coalition. Chris has recently published an article in STAT in which he eloquently described why we cannot narrow down personalized medicine just to cancer and need to look at it through a larger lens. And this is what we have discussed with Chris in this interview.
