Zuckerman Institute Stavros Niarchos Foundation Brain Insight Lecture

One of the most promising avenues for identifying the underlying causes of disease in individual patients lies in the field of genetics and precision medicine. After many years of halting and intermittent progress, the path to comprehensive gene discovery in a broad range of human diseases is now clear, and these findings are now being used as the starting points for the development of new treatments. In this lecture, Institute for Genomic Medicine Director Dr. David Goldstein will share his progress and recent successes in developing targeted treatments that have fundamentally improved the lives of patients living with devastating disease.

This talk is part of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Brain Insight Lecture series, offered free to the public to enhance understanding of the biology of the mind and the complexity of human behavior. The lectures are hosted by Columbia’s Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute and supported by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.  Listen to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Brain Insight Lecture here.
