Introduction

Individualised medicine based on patient genomes will have an enormous impact on healthcare. With breakthroughs in DNA sequencing technology, the number of sequenced genomes could reach >1 Million within 5鈥�10 years. The simultaneous generation and integration of this associated molecular and clinical data will provide an unprecedentedly rich set of 鈥渂ig data鈥� for basic research and translation. Integration of these data will provide new research opportunities, for example, through the identification of novel biomarkers or by enabling the identification of causal relationships in molecular biology through analysing complex datasets, but will also come with significant technical and bioethical challenges.
