Arindam Haldar , CEO, SRL Diagnostics
Breakthroughs in molecular diagnostics are bringing us close to an era in healthcare, often referred to as 'Personalized Medicine', where soon, molecular markers will point towards a person's risk of developing a disease, determine whether a person is a carrier of a hereditary condition, screen for diseases that are present but not yet symptomatic, confirm a diagnosis, or monitor how a patient is responding to treatments. The genome comprises all of our deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which carries our genetic information. The DNA molecule contains four chemical units, expressed in letters A, T, G and C. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) looks at the order of three billion pairs of these letters. There are around 20,000 genes (made of DNA) in every cell of our body, which act as instructions to make molecules called proteins, which then determine the structure and functioning of our cells, tissues and organs. Mutation in any one of these genes on their own or in combination with mutations in other genes or with environmental factors can cause a disease.

10 Best CEOs from Healthcare Technology - 2020
It's an aesthetic sight that the technology adoption curve in the Indian healthcare industry is sky rocketing, unlike the earlier decade. If the trends are anything to go by, the almost $50 billion worth healthcare market in the country is witnessing yet another technology revolution, with a more connected ecosystem in the offering. According to PwC, the country's medical technology sector, which has high government focus on development, is alone expected to touch $9.6 billion in 2022. The IT trends driving this growth range from Telemedicine to the Internet of Medical Things, Artificial Intelligence, advanced Cloud Computing, AR/VR/MR, and most importantly, Data Science & predictive analytics. The stake of hopes on the healthcare technology leaders is huge. While knowledge sharing plays an instrumental role in this pursuit, the CEOs in them simultaneously are entailed to keep a tab on the competition as well.
