Importance & Scope:
The study of biomarkers may be where the future of biomedical research is headed. Since a 1973 paper first mentioned the term “biomarker,” there has been a two-fold increase in the number of NIH-funded grants that deal with biomarkers.
Most aspect of Biomarkers depends upon the vital role in efficiency of the therapeutic process and establishing the standardization of drug development. The major role for the development of disease pathway in biomarkers is done by active connectivity from clinical research to clinical discovery. Diagnostic labs and automated assay development are big players. Research portfolio of biomarkers discovery has an application in all the major scientific studies.
They provide a window into disease, a way to peer into an organism and mine its secrets. They can illuminate the inner workings of a heart muscle or indicate the presence of infection, and interest in how they work has been growing.
Between 2000 and 2011, the NIH gave out nearly $10.7 billion worth of grants to roughly 30,000 studies that all had some form of biomarker science, a tenth of which pertained to biomarker discovery, with another 10 percent dedicated to the validation of pre-existing biomarkers. [1]
Why Toronto, Canada?
In recently published article, scientist in Canada conducted a study to evaluate a change in symptoms, spinal mobility and radiographic features in patient with the help of Biomarkers. They identified that the maximum research related to biomarkers and healthcare use to be conducted in Toronto, Canada. There are more than 100 research firms in Canada which helps in growing the field of research and healthcare. Also according to research from Toronto, studies of human inflammatory diseases can be aided with the help of better biomarkers.
The Central Facility functions in Toronto works as the nexus for the network and its academic and industry partners by providing numerous support services for their clinical and basic research scientists in the conduct of their research. Various researches are going on in university of Ontario, University of Toronto related to biomarkers and Healthcare which results in the hub of researchers all around the world to share their knowledge.
Residing at the core of the network is the OCBN Central Facility, located at the MaRS Incubator in the heart of the biomedical research community in Toronto, one of the most vibrant research hubs in the world which works on the most dreadful disease like Cancer and HIV. [2]
There are several self-sustaining, not-for-profit, research support organization focused on facilitating the identification, quantification and validation of biomarkers for use in diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of diseases in Toronto.
