TY - JOUR AU - Bertier, Gabrielle AU - Joly, Yann PY - 2018 DA - 2018/08/01 TI - Clinical exome sequencing in France and Quebec: what are the challenges? What does the future hold? JO - Life Sciences, Society and Policy SP - 17 VL - 14 IS - 1 AB - The decreasing cost of next-generation sequencing technologies (NGS) has resulted in their increased use in research, and in the clinic. However, France and Quebec have not yet implemented nation-wide personalized medicine programs using NGS. To produce policies on the large-scale implementation of NGS, decision makers could benefit from a detailed understanding of how these technologies are currently used, their limitations, and the benefits they could bring to patients.
