Personalized Medicine: A New Approach | Luigi Boccuto | TEDxGreenville
Coming directly from the Greenwood Genetics Center, Boccuto asks if you have ever thought about what medicine looks like in the future? What if medical issues could be individualized on a genetic level? What if science could pinpoint risks and prevention before birth? In vitro? Well this talk shows how it just might be possible.
Luigi Boccuto is originally from Catanzaro, Italy, but has been living in Greenwood, SC for over 10 years. He received his medical degree and post-doc degree in medical genetics at the Catholic University of Sacred Heart in Rome. During his school and training years, he has worked on hereditary cancer, overgrowth syndromes and intellectual disability (ID) syndromes.
He is currently working as Research Scientist at the JC Self Research Institute of the Greenwood Genetic Center. His main projects are focused on the study of the genetic causes of autism, ID, and conditions with segmental or generalized overgrowth. Most of my work is focused on characterizing the metabolic profiles of cells from patients with genetic conditions, to detect molecular biomarkers for early screening or diagnosis, discover pathogenic mechanisms underlying such disorders, and identify novel targets for treatment approaches.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
