Abstract
The last decade has seen tremendous advances in our ability to interrogate biological systems at the molecular level. As these technologies mature and reduce in cost, the prospect that one day we could use these to understand disease on a personal rather than a population basis becomes a possibility. The talk will describe this landscape and also outline the central role that computing plays in this endeavour.
