"End-to-end informatics solutions focused on clinical applications is the greatest unmet need of customers," explained Transformational Health Senior Industry Analyst Piyush Bansal. "Researchers' reluctance to move onto external platforms due to the lack of end-to-end informatics tools and limited availability of a clinical application-focused analysis pipeline is a key industry challenge. Overcoming this challenge will be critical to success."
Several trends and developments bolster the U.S. NGS informatics market:
"The expected entry of big data information technology companies will integrate healthcare (such as EHR and imaging data) and genomics data to develop and provide artificial intelligence (AI)-based computation and interpretation solutions," noted Bansal. "This will intensify market competition and force smaller players to innovate as clinical interpretation and reporting capabilities become key differentiators among service providers."
