Alliance for Genomic Discovery expands with Regeneron Genetics Center membership and new proteomics data offering

Summary: Big news in the world of medicine! The Alliance for Genomic Discovery is getting even bigger. The Regeneron Genetics Center just joined as its 10th member. This means the Alliance now has a massive database of over 312,000 whole human genomes linked to real medical records.

But that's not all. They are also starting a new project to look at 50,000 genomes along with their proteins (a field called proteomics). The drug company GSK is jumping in to help with this. By studying both DNA and proteins together, scientists hope to discover new medicines for diseases like cancer, obesity, and immune disorders much faster.
