How is Increasing Need for Personalized Medicine Driving Demand for Genomics?

As the prevalence of diseases across the globe is increasing, the need for more effective treatment methods is growing as well. The healthcare sector has been witnessing increased research & development activities for quite some time now, since there are several diseases for which no treatments are available even now. Because of all these reasons, the demand for personalized medicine has been increasing rapidly. As different patients respond differently to particular treatment, the need for shifting towards personalized treatment is growing for facilitating efficient disease management.


Owing to this, the focus towards genomics, which is the study of a person’s genes (the genome), has risen considerably in the healthcare sector. In order to analyze, sequence, and assemble the function and structure of genomes, genomics makes use of a combination of deoxyribo nucleic acid (DNA) sequencing methods, recombinant DNA, and bioinformatics. As per a report by P&S Intelligence, the global genomics market is expected to reach a value of $68.0 billion by 2030, increasing from $18.2 billion in 2019, and is predicted to grow at a 12.7% CAGR during the forecast period 2020–2030.

The major applications of genomics are agriculture and animal research, diagnostics, precision medicine, and drug discovery & development. Out of these, the demand for genomics was the highest for diagnostics in the past, which can be ascribed to the increasing number of research projects on genetic disorders and diseases, including cancer. In addition to this, the rising usage of high-throughput technologies, including next-generation sequencing. The major end users of genomics are pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, research centers & academic institutes, and hospitals and clinics, among which, research centers and academic institutes made the most use of genomics during 2014–2019.

Huge Growth Expected in Dermacosmetics Market in Future

Image
 The cosmetic industry, while mostly misunderstood as dealing with just the aesthetic appearance, has been undergoing technological advancements and moved beyond face creams and face powders since a long time now. Other than this, the prevalence of skin diseases is also rising across the globe and it has been shown by the Global Burden of Disease project that skin diseases are the 4th leading cause of nonfatal disease burden globally. Moreover, understanding the impact of skin diseases is important as in some cases skin conditions often represent a more severe systemic illness, such as human immunodeficiency virus and neglected tropical diseases.  Receive Sample Copy of this Report: https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/dermacosmetics-market/report-sample Attributed to these reasons, the development of dermacosmetics has been made possible. These products are crucial now in the branch of dermatology as they combine cosmetics and scientific techniques for the management of a

Increasing Occurrence of Spinal Cord Injuries Powering Sales of Exoskeletons

Image
The growing prevalence of stroke and spinal cord injuries (SCIs) is fueling the surge in the demand for exoskeletons in several healthcare settings such as rehabilitation centers across the world. In the healthcare industry, exoskeletons are used for helping paralyzed patients walk. For example, as per the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC), in the U.S., there are around 54 cases of SCIs per one million people, or nearly 17,730 new SCI cases are reported every year. Furthermore, in the U.S., the average number of people suffering from spinal cord injuries is 291,000, with various individual estimates falling in the range of 249,000–363,000. The surging geriatric population in several countries is also fueling the demand for exoskeletons. As per the World Population Ageing 2019 report published by the UN, the total number of people in the age bracket- 65 years or above across the world was 703 million in 2019. Moreover, the public awareness about exoskeletons and th

Why is Population Health Management Market Expected to Boom in North America in Future?

Image
 The soaring global geriatric population, which is expected to reach at least 1.5 billion by 2050, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), is a key factor responsible for the rise in the demand for population health management (PHM). Elderly people require extensive care as they are more susceptible to diseases, especially chronic diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular ailments, owing to their low immunity levels and high recovery periods. This causes a huge increase in the demand for better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment processes. In addition to this, older people also have a greater requirement for personalized medicine, because of their increased susceptibility to drug allergy, thereby boosting the demand for population health management. Receive Sample Copy of this Report:  https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/population-health-management-market/report-sample The other important factors bolstering the demand for PHM are the increasing healthcar
