As originally asked by Mandeep Metharu.

What would need to be included in the roadmap for the development of a diagnostics platform that could comprehensively predict or detect the early stages of disease development in an individual?

As is commonly asserted ‘prevention is better than cure’.

Imagine a hypothetical platform whereby an individual took monthly blood, urine &/or saliva samples and inserted them into a microfluidic device that was able to assay the sample(s) for a wide variety of disease markers. Very early stage disease biomarkers could allow the individual to take preventative action far quicker.

Or another (simultaneous) scenario where via wearable and/or implantable biosensors, the individual could get daily health reports on the status of his/her health. With this data the individuals would then be recommended certain tasks to make sure their vitals were within a more acceptable zone.

Where are we currently in achieving this dream and what are the major technological and commercial breakthroughs required?

What are the individual questions that need answering or problems required solving to help push us towards this vision?
