The latest generation of gene sequencers is making advances in molecular medicine , according to Nazneen Aziz , executive director of Kaiser Wilhelm Research Bank . Genomic sequencing has come a long way in a short time, and its potential to drive even faster innovations in precision medicine is enormous. While the sector has come a long way , especially in the translation of genomic data to electronic health records , Aziz believes that there is still much to be done , saying : " the understanding of protein - coding parts of the genome is somewhat mature , but we still do n't know how to interpret the parts that are in - between genes " .
