The future of pharmacogenomics with Professor Ron Trent
Update: 2025-12-09
Description
Pharmacogenomics is transforming the way we think about medicine. It explores how a person's genetic makeup affects the way their body responds to certain drugs, whether they will benefit from a treatment, experience side effects, or gain no benefit at all.
In this episode, we sit down with Professor Ron Trent, NSWHP’s Clinical Director at the Department of Medical Genomics at RPA to find out how this field of medicine is shaping personalised healthcare.
Ron shares stories from his remarkable career, from studying the ‘new genetics’ at Oxford in the early 1980s, to his work on the Human Genome Project. A fascinating discussion about how your genes can hold the key to safer, more effective treatments.
