What is "Molecular Future?"

Molecular Future is the optimistic idea that:

-'Molecular medicine' tech such as DNA sequencing, targeted therapeutics, and pharmacogenomics will power a great leap forward in health care over the next decade.

-The cost to care ratio will fall dramatically because of 'molecular medicine.'

-Technical advances are accelerating.

-There has never been a better time to be in the business of advancing human health.

I also believe that the Molecular Future means many new challenges; business strategies need to evolve, Big Pharma needs to adopt new models, regulators need to adopt new attitudes, and new ethical questions need answers.
